Saw this cool Chevy truck on the way to the Billetproof Drags 2009 in Florida. What a great event. The only drawback was being there in a rental car but what the hell.

hot rod hayride 2010

What a weekend! We started thursday evening, drove half way through france, slept for 2 hours, drove on, took the ferryboat, and finally, after another 3 hours, arrived at the gates of the Hot Rod Hayride.
