(Words and photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>We’re continuing our Cincinnati Cavalcade Of Customs 2017 coverage right now. It is no secret I am not part of the \u2018LS-swap the world\u2019 movement.\u00a0 It\u2019s not that I don\u2019t like them\u2026but they\u2019re ugly and 95% of the swaps don\u2019t look right in a classic, muscle car, or rod.\u00a0 This \u201967 C10 step-side is one of two exceptions in this collection of photos.\u00a0 Not only is the truck a looker, under the hood is super-easy on the eyes as well.\u00a0 Lots of work to make this one cool.<\/p>\n

It won\u2019t fool the knowledgeable, but most who pass won\u2019t have a clue.\u00a0 Really can appreciate the effort that went into this.\u00a0 Next is the sweet pale gray step-side that we have personally witnessed running low 12s at Edgewater.\u00a0 Though I don\u2019t like the coils on there, this is a sano swap and because it runs like a scalded dog I can overlook them.\u00a0 After this we pass into a sea of early rods and spot Erik Murphy\u2019s \u201947 Ford fat-fender.\u00a0 Stance and finish that speaks to the traditionalist in us.<\/p>\n

One of the best cars (if not THE best) we saw all weekend was the \u201965 Buick Riviera Gran Sport.\u00a0 A one-of-one special-order, this thing shows us they just don\u2019t make \u2018em like they used to.\u00a0 Wow.\u00a0 Keep going through the photos and you\u2019ll spy more bicycles, a bumper car, and ever Ben Jones\u2019 (Cooter from Dukes of Hazard) Chevy tow truck.\u00a0 Pretty neat stuff.<\/p>\n

Enjoy these.\u00a0 One more group from the main floor then we head upstairs.<\/p>\n
