New Mexico Toyota Hilux
from Alex Morgan in eastern New Mexico: "Our truck. 1982 long bed with 200k. Found items under the seat indicated original life in Washington state then New Mexico and Texas and travels to east coast. It’s never had anything done much to it. I am installing a Weber 38, headers, and a fresher transmission.

American Dream Cars in San Antonio
Thanks to Stephen Hendrickson for the heads-up. Organized by the McNay Museum of San Antonio, Texas American Dreams: Classic Cars and Postwar Paintings explores the ingenuity and innovation of postwar America. This period, known as America’s Golden Age, witnessed the explosion of Abstract Expressionism, Pop art, and Op art; the mass production of automobiles; and increased wealth and consumerism. The exhibition presents 10 classic cars as modern sculpture, alongside paintings from the McNay’s collection and select loans.
(There are some of the usual suspects in the show..but I think that's a Packard Caribbean down below (with the Calif plate)

from Don Green Culbertson, in West Texas:
"Two ranch trucks and a tractor
The Ford is Coors
The Chevy is Bud
The Allis-Chalmers tractor is pabts blue ribbon
Pardon the beer analogy, but that’s the way they roll."
