2018 Garagemahal Show Attendance & Results

This post was updated on .
Well, IT WAS GREAT!    And, because we were having so much fun I'm just now getting some of my "work" done to document what went on.  First, here are the 19 entrants, with their Bullnose forum "handle" shown in parens:

Larry Meeks 1940 Pickup
Brian Poese 1968 Ranger
Jeff Ingram 1983 F250
David Branscomb 1986 F150 (1986F150Six)
Chris Tubutis 1981 F350 (ctubutis)
Scott Ringler 1978 F150
James Markle 1985 F150
Tim & Melinda 1972 F100
Tim White Bronco
Curtis Coffman 2000 Lightning
Mike Oleson 1982 F250
Kyle Coffman 1978 Ranger
Bruce Scott 2012 Ford Flex (Moose4x4)
Matthew Mattix 1982 F150
Bird Johnson 1986 F150
Paul Terhune 1980 F150 (Rogue_Wulff)
Brandon Holland 2001 Lightning
Roger Cornett 1928 Roadster
Gary Lewis 1985 F250 (Gary Lewis)

And the trophy winners were:
Best Paint: Brian Poese 1968 Ranger
Best Engine: Mike Oleson 1982 F250
Closest To Stock (pre-2000): Tim & Melinda 1972 F100
Best Upgrades: Tim White Bronco
People's Favorite: Roger Cornett 1928 Roadster
Farthest Distance Driven: Chris Tubutis 1981 F350 (ctubutis)  685 miles from Denver

But, there were several people here who didn't have trucks entered, and at the risk of missing some - to which I'll apologize up front - here they are:
Darin & Anita from Australia (Oz Econoline)
Ken & Gail from New Zealand  (Ken Blythen)
Vinny Simone from Newfoundland (vjsimone)
Ray Cecil from Kentucky (Ray Cecil)
Bill Kinsala from Waxahachie, TX (brnwaxa)
Kevin, wife, and son from near Hope, AR (844RD)  [Sorry, I didn't get all the names.]
Eli, son, and nephew from Peru/Niotaze? Kansas (Smokenchoken)
Fred Nelson from Anderson, MO.  [Not a Bullnose forum member, but he's the host of the FORDification show in early June]

And with that, I need to process the pictures.  But, I have 333 pictures from 4 different sources, so that is going to take some work.  First, I need to sort out the pictures of feet.  And those where the photographer was clearly playing around.  And then work through the duplications that happen with 4 different people snapping pics.  So, that'll take some time, after which I'll create a new picture gallery for them and link to them from here.  But, since you've been patient I'll give you some to whet your appetites.  And, if anyone else has pics from the show or the weekend, please post them up.

Thanks for posting up some pics Gary! I am sorry that I could not come this year. I truly missed out, and I missed visiting with you all. But sometimes life throws you a curve ball and makes you focus on the blessings that you do have 🙂.

You are truly blessed, Jonathan.  That's Charley?  I'll bet you'll make a grease monkey out of her.  

How old is she?  Maybe 8?

I am blessed Gary... and yes, that is Charlie. She just had her 6th birthday this month. She actually might learn to like wrenching. She spends most of her free time playing in dirt and she goes crazy when I run my power tools. Her brother, on the other hand ignores them... so beware of the stereotypical gender expectations 😉

My grandtwins have just turned 7, so I can relate.  But they are as different as night and day.  He wants to mow with me, and she's tired of it.  However, both were at the show and loved the trucks:

Great picture Gary! Thanks for sharing. I’m glad they enjoyed the show. The little blue Ford shirts next to the classic blue pickup is neat!

Thing is, now I really need to get my crew cab running for 2019...

Thanks to Gary and Janey for opening their home and welcoming us. We had a great weekend - me spending time at the show and special thanks to Janey for taking Anita and the girls out for the day!

Here are some photos that Anita took both at the show and with the girls 👍5792D486-633C-4D9A-9161-C0F9C2226674.jpegA0D61792-52CA-4FCC-A66B-BFF9B19308DA.jpeg095B169A-8912-441B-A0E4-46ED10E5D9E7.jpegD870C4E9-5B5B-4B79-927D-4A5E57F0916D.jpeg3154F570-8832-4870-AA3C-3F204A2168CD.jpeg

Hi, Darin [and Anita]!

Thanks for sharing the photos. I know Gary likes the one of "Big Blue", all alone and guarding the entrance.

It was a pleasure meeting the two of you. Have a great vacation in the USA.

David

Darin - Sooo glad you and Anita came!  Good to get to know and talk with you. Hope you get home with all the loot. 😉

And, thanks for the pics. David is right - I like the one of Big Blue. But the one of the Mercantile is cool as well. People come from all over to see that place. But where’s one of the bison?  😎
