Default Fort Pike Car Show

I attended the Fort Pike car Show yesterday in the Outskirts of New Orleans, for is named after Brig Gen. Zebulon Pike, I was blown away that the truck placed Best of Show and will be featured on the event T-Shirt next year. The fort is only open 1 day a year for the event, although heavily damaged during Katrina, they stabilized it, but really longer long maintain it. Soon to be a lost part of History.

Excellent! Local car shows are in high gear in south Mississippi. Having a great time showing the ‘63 GMC and the ‘66 Chevy.

You're going to have to wait until the show next year to sell it, Jake! Potential buyers will want to see the winning truck and the T-shirt together.

Congratulations, your truck is a beauty! Sad to hear about Ft. Pike. We have Ft. MacArthur here, it's well maintained and has some nice historical displays from the First World War days to when it was a Nike missile base.
