I believe that 53 Ford F-350 is the first year that the 350 model was introduced??? Which would make it even more unique.. I WANT!!!!

Can you imagine all the 4 wheelers a long tongued California pup would collect on Long Island when they tried to cut between the truck and the trailer????

Or if from the south a AAA Cooper freight from Dothan AL???

This one belongs to one of our chapter members who is standing beside it..

Time to stop by Just Old Trucks

Larry, I would have to consult with the "Snake Oil" salesman, Eddy Lucast, I am sure KBS has something to kill the surface rust???

Definitely prewar.. Possibly as early as 38-39 on the Chevy???

I heard that his start with the orange cars started with either Richie or one of his buddys worked for the Highway Dept and "Borrowed" some paint from them every so often???

YES!! Just clean it up a little and add clear coat to preserve the patina..

Actually a third, With all the Aussies on several of these forums.. I have a lot of the Aussie figured out?? Actually they call asphalt Bitumen..

Maybe I am a year early?? Anyone know if he got accepted SUNY Morrisville Ag and Tech auto tech program??

Jim, DO NOT wait until the have built the bridge!!!! Maybe Eddy Lucast has the right idea of taking a container ship cabin instead of flying??? As you can tell from my 2015 report it was a wonderful experience.. Especially as Stephanie does an excellent job of mixing a normal tourist agenda with Antique / Historical trucks.

I am sorry, not this time.. I would very much like to go BUT my wife's legs can not take that much walking anymore.. I hope you take your camera and post us a fine report!!!

Travel agent Stephanie Vanatta Anton has again put together an Australian tour in conjunction with the 2020 Truckie's Reunion in Alice Springs AU for August 27 thru September 14, 2020. Her father is a past president of ATHS so she has many contacts in the antique truck hobby. For more information go to the summary sheet here: http://greattruckadventure.com and then click on "detailed itenary" for the complete daily schedule. It appears that she has scheduled some days where the men can go to a truck show and the women can go sightseeing.

Almost looks like they took a late 50's Diamond T 921 "China Closet" cabover grille and flattened it out..

Jim You are right on the Oshkosh.. A Walter had the front axle set back further and a more sloping nose..

Most of all the kids before 1965 were taught the respect of authority and themselves!!! With today's lack of discipline at the basic family level, I doubt if anybody will uphold this level of success???

H67 The Bus was parked behind the bathrooms and if I remember the conversation correctly the son of the displayer uses it in his hunting / fishing guide business in either Wyoming or Montana??

Here is some more info on this unit with comments by operator Aaron Benito. http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/146849/Saw-this-posted-elsewhere

Yes!! The early 50's IH's used the Dodge "Pilot House" cab rather than the IH "Compfovision" cab. I am out of picture posting space here, but if you go to this link and scroll thru the Alice Springs and Archie Baines sections you will see a couple. An L and a S model IH with PH cabs. http://forums.justoldtrucks.com/84264/Down-Under-Trip?Keywords=Down Under Trip

Montana is beautiful.. When we went to the Yakima WA ATHS show we ran MT 200 almost all the way across, and after we did Glacier Natl Park on the way home I forget what we ran,, dropped south??

Harry Were those first pictures taken in Ian Lee's shop?? This is what it looked like in August of 2015 when I saw it..

Jim It is NOT the ability to read, it IS the ability to COMPREHEND what they have read!!!

It was great to visit with you and the Redhead again this year. I only too about 80 pictures. This one gives you an idea of the size of just one field.

Jim, Good Question!! That I do not have an answer for.. Eddy Lucast just asked the same question about the Just Old Trucks group picture.. We had it at 10:30 not to conflict with BMT, but apparently several members were on the Mack factory tour.. Several of us are on both sites, so hopefully we can work out something by next year..
