Super cool trucks and vehicle. There are so many designs I didn't even know excited, especially some of the oldest models. Make me enthused about about getting up this morning and working on my own jeep. Thanks for the cool video. 😎👍
@@MyClassicCarTV , next show, could you try to go from solid tire, chain drive C-cabs to Semi's. The evolution of truck, a great tool is fascinating. Also if you can, cover the evolution of the van, from light utility vehicles to pickup truck based. Note:: I have a 78 Econoline with a 351W, 4 speed standard & 411 POSI as my work van. [ If only Ford, or anyone still made a "power tool" this good...]
Kudos to the cameraman for doing such an excellent job. You give us a wonderful window into these events, yet always remain the unsung hero. Thank-you so much!!
I drove an ACCO with a 555 and 10 speed Eaton geared to 90kph unless you wanted to rev the guts out of it with disastrous fuel economy. Dreadful noisy engine that vibrated your teeth loose.
@@keithjohnson5398 Yeah, it's true. There may be a few mixed in here and there, but to see a dedicated truck show was awesome! Really hope something like this will inspire other communities.
You folks have some of the most beautiful trucks I have ever seen, I restore and collect both US and German trucks so I have a pretty good idea of just what you folks have into these trucks in both time and money let me just say it shows, these trucks are just plain AMAZING!!!!!!
Raul ceballos que grandes videos tienen porque soy un conductorde gran parte de mi vida y tengo experiencia ÷n la mecanica de tractocamiones y busco trabajo en cualquier lugar
Thanks for the bonus footage.... This could have been an hour episode with sooooooo much cool stuff ! Usually when you see big machines like this they're rotting away in some junk yard.... It's really great to see the semis/and trucks restored to their former glory !
Thank you Dennis!! U have taken something as simple as a "truck show" and highlighted what I believe is an important part of American history. These are the trucks I worked on! Thank you sir!
Was für schöne Fahrzeuge, ich bin begeistert. Solche LKW,s hatte die DDR nicht zu bieten, aber die waren auch nicht schlecht. Bin ja fast alle gefahren. Deswegen kann ich das sagen. Danke für das schöne Video.
Fantastic B roll Dennis! Don't hesitate to share that. There were some great trucks there. I wanted to see the 1919 Mack wrecker hook up the boom for a recovery! One man job! That sounds scary!
The problem is the availability of parts, as when most users of a commercial vehicle have scrapped theirs, the manufacturer often stops supporting it. Also most of the makes at the show don't exist anymore. Note: The Soviets also made some amazing commercial trucks including amphibious, but when they phased out a model, they stopped making pasts, so you can only see rusted relics...
+David For sure. Then on the other hand - if the demand for these old trucks were strong enough - the cost of fabricating unavailable parts would be justified. : /
Just think it wasn't for the semi and the drivers back then and now. We wouldn't have no food, gas, and no supplies. Thank you all the the truckers out there
Loved all the old fire trucks. Years ago,(early 1981) the volunteer fire department I was in has a 1959 Ford F900 strait cab truck as first out rig. Carried 750 gallons on board with 2 booster reels. The truck had 5,000 original miles on the clock. No telling how many hours on the engine. It was painted red and white with gold leaf lettering. It is a thing of beauty. Last I knew, it was still in active service. This truck would be right at home at this show.
12:05 There's a video on RU-vid about this Tow Truck being called the uglyest Tow Truck made in the 70's but to me I think it was just as an interesting design.
I've got to find out where the next antique truck show near me is going to be. All that ATHS has is the show in Carson, Nevada that ran over a month ago.
Ive seen that wite osh kosh a few places i think i seen it years ago in a truck book i had also not positive i remember wite oshkosh with same blue emblem
