Popular Post other dog Posted June 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2021 I made it to the ATHS National Show and Convention for the first time ever. It was in Harrisonburg, about 2 hrs. from here. I saw a lot of trucks I had never seen before, and some BMT members too. All the pictures are here, just click on the picture- Here are some of the many Macks- This is one of the best looking i've seen- this one too- 3 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

davehummell Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 That old autocar with the built in bunk reminds me of mine that I ran up and down the eastern seaboard 262 with a 4x4 trans. Boy did I swelter down in Florida running the thing. But it is one of my all time favorite trucks other than my b model. I'm real happy to see that one in the picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I wore a baseball cap the first day, then I switched to my "Gregg Hoffman hat" (Underdog) but I still ended up with a sunburn on my neck. I might have to bring my Florida hat to Macungie, that's a little bigger and even more floppy. I think I need a Sombrero. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

High Binder Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Odog, you missed this one. Wasn't talking about you. I was talking about the floppy hat next to the "Superliner" in your pictures. This retirement is causing you to lose your edge. LOL I guess that black truck is a Superliner. Since no girl in car pics, i thought you were trying to sneak one in on us. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the truck from the E-Bay listing before he got it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, we're planning on being in Macungie too. I might wear my BMT T shirt, and a floppy hat. Zina's sister, Vicki from Florida, is coming too.

They had a lot of golf carts there too, they were everywhere! You could rent a golf cart, but even Tony Youngblood was complaining about how expensive they were- he said they were $150 a day, but I heard others say they were $100, which is still pretty steep. I guess if you split it 2 or 3 or 4 ways it's not bad though. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I posted a picture of whatever it said on there. Nice souvenirs though, I guess. I had the one picture of a chock that was propped in front of the tire and it looked like it had pushed into the tire an inch or more. They were just a little piece of 4x4, I'm sure they were mainly for show instead of actually being capable of stopping a truck from rolling off. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

The novelty wheel chock probably costs twice as much as when the show was planned . No wonder they're tiny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
