The
South East Mini Truckin Nationals suvs were sick this year!
The show was held at the Maggie Valley Fair Grounds, but in
previous years this show was held in Pigeon Forge, TN. Due to some
unfortunate circumstances the show had to be moved. It may
have been
because
the show got so big, Pigeon Forge just ran out of room for all of the
custom mini trucks, full size trucks and custom cars that always
attended.
However,
the show is now back in full force and had a really nice turn
out this year in the new location!
I loaded up my Impala and headed into the mountains of NC with my Car
club,
Pebble Pushers.
As a fan of all types of custom cars and trucks, I try to
attend as many shows, of all types, as often as possible.
Even though I knew I was going to a mini truck type show, I took the
Impala because I knew it would be fun.
The show was in a fenced in grassy area where the Maggie
Valley Fairgrounds are held. The lot was plenty big to hold
all of the show trucks
and suvs,
some wild and
some mild, and the few cars that were on display.
Seeing as how the mini truckin nationals is officially
classified as a mini truck show, it was not surprising to see that
there weren't many cars on display, but the few that were looked pretty
cool.
The air temp was a little on the hot side, but there was a pretty steady
breeze that kept us all cool. That plus our pop-up shelters
made the high temps tolerable. There were
food vendors at the show to keep us all fed and refreshed with
some ice cold drinks. There were at least two pinstriping
professionals at the show, including John from
Drop Em Wear? and
another fellow that travels to shows to apply
killer striping gaphics
on location!
