  1. The Draggin' Wagon, formerly known as fuzzy buzzard.
  2. These are in the parking lot at the motel.
  3. I think this is the first time I've seen those trucks here.
  4. Sorry you couldn't make it, hope your wife is OK. It'll probably be a while on the pictures this year, because we're still moving and I haven't moved my computer yet. And we've already cancelled the internet at the old house, so I just don't know. I won't be able to post any pictures that I take with the camera until I get the PC going.
  5. Another Sonny Pruitt mobile. This is the best looking Cruiseliner I've ever seen. The owner brought it all the way from Wisconsin. A green B model integral sleeper.
  6. In front of the Mack factory in Macungie. Pit stop- There's some trucks on the grounds now, but the show doesn't officially start until tomorrow. We're just riding around looking.
  7. What if it's raining at high noon, do you have an umbrella I can borrow?
  8. Yes, but this guy had several buildings in several different places packed full of these old vehicles. I don't have any idea what he did with any of them, if anything. I was kind of curious what they brought at auction, but I never heard. Mecum auctioned off several old GMCs a while back, a D860 and several more, like 630's or something, don't remember, some had 6-71s, one was a 4-71, all 5 speeds with 2 speed rears I think. I don't know what they went for either, but before the auction their web site said they were expected to go for from 90 to $100,000. They were all restored trucks though, looked really nice, maybe not $100,000 nice.
  9. That's like that guy in Lynchburg a while back- he died and they auctioned off his collection of old cars, truck, boats, even an airplane. He had them stashed in several old buildings, and the thing is nobody knew any of them were there until they started moving things out to get the ready to sell. I heard about some that were sitting in one place in Lynchburg and me and Zina went to investigate. Then I saw more of the guy's stuff in Madison Heights that had been in another building when I went to the eye Dr. A fairly young guy I think, filthy rich, and had all these old and rare vehicles stashed around that nobody knew about- weird. I'm pretty sure I posted pictures of some of the stuff here.
  10. I could use a couple of dressers if you run across any good deals.
  11. I wonder if Paul Birch and William Campbell really drove the cannonball? You can tell in a lot of scenes that there's not even a windshield in the truck. I've only seen the 2 episodes that I have on a DVD since I was a kid, many years ago. They're also on YouTube, maybe they're the only episodes in existence now. On a side note, there's a William Campbell High School here between Gladys and Brookneal. Probably named for a different William Campbell though 🤣
  12. This is how he found the D860. He did a little work on it, cleaned it up, and that's about it. I just like seeing stuff like this more than any gussied up Peterbilt.
  13. That's one of my favorites too, and the one with Freightrain.
  14. I just saw a Facebook post on the fat cab GMC page, J.B.'s truck are already loaded up to go to Macungie. These two are true "barn finds" that you hear about. He's been bringing the Cannonball for a while, I think last year was the first time for the D860. They both have 6-71s.
  15. I don't get it either, somebody posts a video of some asshat on Facebook with the same setup every once in a while. He's throwing 3 sticks around and people ooh and ahh about it. I say the title should read "how gay can you possibly look while driving a truck". I mean what you do on your own time is your own business, but that's how it looks to me.
