I love trucks! My show truck is a 1994 Chevy S-10 pick up. I brought it home in November of 1993 right off the assembly line with the intention of making this a show-quality vehicle. Not to be confused with the ZR2 package, we put on a Trailmaster 4″ suspension lift and then a 3″ body lift.
Neon Affect red neon tubes, glass etching on the windows, reflective pin-striping, and holographic window tint help set it off from the rest. I’ve been showing this truck since 1994, been in 46 competition shows and have won 39 trophies, 13 of which are first place and one for Best Customizing. My truck has also been in two truck magazines several years ago.
My newest toy is a 1973 Cadillac Superior hearse/ ambulance combination. I’ve always wanted one since high school and I finally bought one! There are only 202 of the combos made in ’73 (1001 total made of all the models) and has about 49,000 miles. This car weighs about 3 ton and is 24 feet long, complete with a 472ci V8.
Interior of the back with two jump-seats. The bar on the left is to hold the gurney in place when used as an ambulance. The rollers can turn upward when the car is used as a hearse.
I’ve taken her to several shows and had a lot of fun with this car. Works well for camping too- just add a mattress and blanketes in the back and we’re all set!
Our hearse club (R.I.P.- Ride In Peace) participates in a fund raiser at a funeral home in Rochester. We have so much fun every year!
Did I mention I love trucks? These are the trucks we trained in. I look so little!
A few years ago I went to school to learn how to drive rigs, got my Class A CDL, and now my goal is to get an older truck, fix it up, and take to car shows.
