    Truckin' the Trace November 1 - 2, Tupelo, MS

    Sounds good. I hope my squarebody is painted by then but I doubt it would be ready for this trip. I just got it running enough to drive on the trailer for the paint shop. I still have the interior to finish and then finalizing all the shortcuts I took to get it to run. Maybe you will get to see...

    Truckin' the Trace November 1 - 2, Tupelo, MS

    @PeteJr I am going to try to make this show too this year. I booked a room in Tupelo in hopes we can make it anyway. Are you going or saving for Dino’s?

    Southern Illinois Truck Showdown - Marion, IL 8/31/24

    @Sad Sack are you too far from this one? I think this is the most Northwestern one I know of. It's not all GM though. They let Fords and Dodges in.

    GM Truck Fair

    Do you guys not have some truck shows out in Nebraska? There are so many over here I have to pick and choose which ones I can make it to :P

    Southern Illinois Truck Showdown - Marion, IL 8/31/24

    We may need to merge these two threads https://www.gmsquarebody.com/threads/southern-illinois-truck-showdown-presented-by-lmc-truck.38857/ Brett invited me last year and I couldn't make it work out but I am going to do my best to make it up there this year.

    Southern Illinois Truck Showdown - Marion, IL 8/31/24

    @PeteJr I am registered for this show and have a hotel booked for this year. Did you have a good time last year at this or did you not go when no one was interested?

    Southeastern GM Truck Nationals.......... 2025

    It was good seeing you again this year @PeteJr I told a few guys I see from Alabama every year that I spent more time catching up with buddies this year than I did looking at trucks!! I didn't get many pics this year either but there was some neat stuff there as always and the swap meet had a...

    Drip Rail Sealant

    Hey guys, it’s been a while since I took my truck apart and had it sand blasted. It’s at the body shop now and I’m curious if there’s meant to be any sealing layer or glue strip between the drip rail and the cab to keep water from the fastener holes. Do they glue and screw or just screw on and...

    Power Tour 2025

    July in Nashville ^ it’s a good time. I went in ‘23 and spectated. Had to go back and enter the truck last year. It’s always hot like power tour but they have some indoor exhibits to get in the cool air for a bit.

    Power Tour 2025

    @bucket I’m out this year. I’m doing the tailgate tour again in the 69. I’m hoping to have my squarebody done in time for SETN and Truckin the Trace though. I figured you’d be all over that new route up your way. I kind of wanted to go again but we decided one roadtrip was enough this year...

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    We'll have to see about next year. I did already buy my tickets for the tailgate tour in March though so I am going on that. If I can get my 78 done and some AC I will probably be way more likely to go on HRPT again :D I had a good time with everything but the heat :P

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    So, after making the decision to use these mirrors, I naively assumed my local glass guy could fix my broken mirror but no, they don't do mirror stuff... Do you guys have a link to a source for rebuilding these things? LMC is all universal stuff which I am not sure it will work here or not.

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    I think I am going to keep them for a few reasons, 1. It's the laziest approach and requires no fab work, 2. They look good on that orange truck, 3. I know I can see out of them.

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    That is the first lowered one I have seen with them still on it. I am having my truck painted though. In hindsight, I should have just left it alone :D

    You guys are as divided as I am. Lol

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    So my truck came with the rpo DG4 for the stainless tripod mirrors. They are easy to see out of but, what are they going to look like on a lowered truck? I have seen trucks my color even with the sport mirrors but they look kind of small and are difficult to see out of. Does anyone have pics...

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    I’d like to. The guys putting that on invited me way back in March on the tailgate tour. It’s a decent haul for me to get over there. Should be some pretty scenery along the way though. They have as many trucks as SETN I heard.

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    This ^. They don’t sell one day tickets either so you might as well hit both days. Spectator fee was $20 per person this year and to enter a truck was $50. Truck entry came with 2 passes so it’s basically $10 to bring the truck in if you go with a buddy. Well worth it to keep the cooler close :D

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    I’m glad we got a chance to meet and chat. My drive wasn’t so long but I sure felt the heat on the ride home last night. I’m putting ac in the square and getting to these shows does wonders to re-energize you on getting some of these projects done. I booked my spot on the next tailgate tour...

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    I am one of the 1550 :D but not the square body. I am still a long way from done on that one. With any luck I will have it done for next year's but don't hold your breathe :P If you all see my truck make sure to say hi or leave a note if I'm off gabbing to someone else.
