In the gallery above are some of the show trucks on display this weekend at the 75 Chrome Shop Pride & Polish show in Wildwood, Fla.

This is the first Pride & Polish stop in 2014, and the third in the 2014 Pride & Polish National Championship series.

The show is free to spectators and features live music, free food, giveaways and more. It’s located at Exit 329 off of I-75 in central Florida.

The Best of Show winners from the event will qualify for the Pride & Polish National Championship judging round that takes place in August at the Great American Trucking Show in Dallas.

After the truck was retired about three years ago, owner Joel Anker had it rebuilt into a show truck. The hard work paid off, with a fifth-place finish in the Limited Mileage -- Bobtail with Miles class at MATS in March.
