The Big Green International That Runs Now
other dog replied to other dog's topic in Other Truck Makes
I should have posted the pictures in reverse order on flickr, they're kind of backwards, but oh well. -
Here's a link to the channel 6 news story about the Truckers Parade Against Cancer- https://www.wtvr.com/news/local-news/truckers-against-cancer-oct-16-2024

Here's a lot of pictures of the big green International that runs now. I know most everybody has seen it on the "Odds and Ends" page, since back when it was the "big green International that doesn't run". It should have been here at first, but I didn't know at first that it would be such a long drawn out story. Anyhow...

I would blow mine towards the woods on one side in the front yard and into the woods behind the house. By the time they were all gone I would have a wall of leaves almost chest deep.
-
Same as Virginia, northern VA, and the Richmond and tidewater area control the rest of the state. 😡
-
I used to blow mine towards western Pennsylvania until green dash traced the serial number on one of them and threatened to sue me. Then I started blowing them towards Australia.

I don't have too many leaves to deal with here, But when I lived in Gladys I was covered up with leaves!

I don't know why that Dodge pickup in the snow is still there, I thought I removed it twice. I took some of these with a camera, some with a phone, and some Zina sent me, so it was hard to get them all organized.
-
thank you, thank you very much.
-
Not many trucks, just a lot of pictures of the same trucks.

Chester cheeta was at the parade too- Channel 6 news out of Richmond was there. We can't get Richmond from here, just Lynchburg and Roanoke, but I saw no mention of the parade on their website. And this truck came all the way from Canada to be in the parade. I was wondering if they drove it all the way from Canada with that open cab, but when Zina was coming back up 460 from the Kroger store yesterday evening she said it passed her, and it was on a trailer. I have a few more pictures, I think i'll put them on flickr and post a link.

Keystone's E9 powered unit.

We took all three around the loop this morning. They did so good we went around for a second pass.
-
Yes. At first I was going to get a hard bill chauffer's cap, but decided to get this one instead.
-
Zina noticed right away, like as soon as I took them out of the envelope they were in. I said "well, i'm not taking them back now".

Well, speaking of Pontiacs- that was the only Pontiac I ever owned, but I did go look at a- Bonneville maybe? Big car, '68 or '69 I think, 2 door, white interior, it was either dark green or dark blue, I don't remember now. It had a 400 Pontiac engine, clean as a pin. A doctor in Lynchburg was selling it, had right around a 100,000 miles on it, which I thought was too many at the time. This was around '83 or '84 probably. I still wish I had bought that car, it's definitely the "one that got away". He was asking $500 for it.

I was driving a '68 Pontiac Tempest in 1979. It came with the OHC 6 cylinder and a three speed on the column. I bought it from a friend who had put a 350 out of a 73 or 74 Ventura in it. I think that's what it was - looked kind of like a Nova. Still had the 3 speed though. Pretty good old car.
-
I can explain- Actually, that's a 5 and I didn't really notice that it looked like "sex" until I got home from the DMV office and put it on. I would have gotten the black and white antique plates, but they didn't have any when I was there and I did not want to have to make another trip to the DMV.
-
What? That's my antique truck driving hat!
-
Me, Zina, and Roman. We left the other 2 at home, but we're going to try all 3 on a shorter run. Plenty of room for them.
-
Thanks Bob, I washed and waxed it yesterday. I even wore my antique truck driving hat today- if I had a pack of non-filter Camels I'd be good to go! 😁
-
Well, the big green truck that runs now made it to Charlotte Courthouse. We're waiting for the parade to start, which isn't until around 3 or 3:30. Lots of trucks here. The Keystone Truck and Tractor Museum guys just rolled in with about 8 trucks. I'll have more pictures later, I have nearly non-existent phone signal here.
