What cool trucks (rigs or pick ups) have you seen lately?

Saw this beautiful stretched Pete at work while on break. He was pulling a matching trailer with it.

Sorry. Double post.

Saw this transfer this afternoon. So Cal sure has some purty dirt haulers.

These were in the main yard this morning. They belong to the owner my company. Just part of his restored antique truck collection.

Those are some sweet looking trucks, Man....

[Petetrucker07]

I couldn't get a pic, but there is a bubble nose pete and a bull nose KW in the shop.

[kilrathy10]

That sounds pretty cool....Hope you can get a shot or two of them......You see a lot of cool looking trucks out there, Man....Keep those pics coming.....

[o-man]

Those old trucks are cool! Pardon my ignorance, but what kind of truck is that Ford sitting on?

Thats a Diamond T.

Clayton, that FL daycab sure is a sweet rig. Those 5 hole Alcoas are beautiful. If you can get some shots of the Bullnose, and bubblenose I would love to see them. Have they done any work to the 281, or the Autocar?

Clayton - those pics are really nice. Man I love that Freightliner, I want to build a model of that one.

Pretty awesome Diamond T with the jailhouse grill also !

Nothing yet. They just got done repainting this International the same shades of green as the others.

They started restoring the 1st heavy haul truck the company ever had, a 359 Pete. I'm not sure what motor or what year. I'll do more investigating.

Here's a pic of the Bullnose KW and a few others I could google.

I'm not sure if this is the same bubblenose or not, but it looks just about the same.

He has quite a collection of old iron. He is or was vice president of the ATHS out here.

[Petetrucker07]

Here's some yard art I saw today while waiting to get on the scale after getting loaded.

Really like that crane and Euclid.

Saw a couple, new, Westernstars being delivered today; never see those around here.

[Superpeterbilt]

That crane sure is a helluva tire swing! That poor dump truck is going to be dumping those rocks for eternity.

Clayton your boss has a real nice collection...thanks for posting the pics.

[tbill]

Clayton, great pics man!

I had to do a little traveling for work, while tooling down the New York State thruway Thursday, I saw two car carriers the resembled the revell kit ( I was shocked to see one, let alone two!). On the way home today on the thruway, I saw two old coe's, one IH and one Pete, and of the hundreds of rigs I saw on this little trip, I saw only one lonestar. Unfortunately, I was driving, so no pics, but seeing the stuff was neat and I wanted to share.

[Chuck Most]

I don't think I've seen a 720 this clean in.... well, I don't think I've EVER seen one as well-preserved as this in Michigan.

[Chuck Most]

Dug this out of a barn yesterday- '57 Ford T700.

[Guest]

The T700 looks to be in real good shape, does it run?

[Chuck Most]

It is in very good shape- nothing more than minor surface rust, a few dents in the roof (no doubt caused by somebody walking on it) and a tent/tear in the driver's side headlight bezel. Odometer shows just over 66,000 miles- as far as I can tell that's actual. Hasn't run since about 2002.
