44th F100 Truck Show in Morro Bay

This last Saturday, 8/16/2014, I took a jaunt to Morro Bay to see what the 44th Annual F 100 North-South Run Was all about. I arrived early to beat any crowds.

The show was to start at 8 am, so I arrived at Tidelands Park around 6 am. I walked around and took some photos of the birds and the local "Morro Bay" scenery while I waited for the event.

The trucks started showing up around 7:45 am. After about an hour, the park was full of early Ford F-100 trucks and vans. The pride of ownership and the time and money invested in these early to late 50's trucks was obvious. I have seen a lot of Ford trucks, (having been a Ford truck owner since I first started driving back in the 60's), but there were some models I hadn't seen before.

I walked around, took photos and talked with the owners until mid morning. This was a fun little excursion on a Saturday morning, and one of the reasons I love living on the central coast.
