Featured at The Woodland Auto Display
You can always find something new at the Woodland Auto Display! This month we are proud to introduce and new "working member" of the Woodland staff, and completely rebuilt 1970 C-30 Chevy truck converted toa custom Ramp Truck/Car Hauler. It's shown holding the beautiful Edmunds built King-o-Lawn Sprint Car - loaded and ready to go down the road!
This is one of the latest additions to Woodland Auto Display. It is a 1933 Ford Pick Up which belonged to our own Larry Eastwood, (Vic's Cafe and EWM). This was his pride and joy for years. It is exceptionally clean and somewhat unusual as he opted to retain a Ford Flathead as opposed to most being converted to later model Chevy or Ford ohv engines.  

As an aside, we also have Kenny Colwell's 1937 Chevrolet on display. As you may know, you used to hardly ever saw one of them without the other around the Paso Robles area. Thus, we felt it only fitting to have their two beautiful street rods displayed side by side within the Auto Display..
