I just got here- now that is good!
-
Used to be a bar across the road from the truckstop in Dallas Pike W.V, just east of Wheeling, that had the front of a Transtar IH as the door, you opened the grill and walked right through the front of the truck. Don't know if it's still there, only saw it once in the early '80's.
-
well, it's back to the old grind today...
-
I don't know what it is, it's a mystery. I don't even recall ever seeing anybody there. I used to have a picture of the building and the VW, but I must have deleted it.
-
I like it! Here's another ideer.
-
So would I! Seen it for years, but i'm not sure what it is. There's like a quonset hut there with a VW beetle sticking out of the side of it, but not much room to pull off in a truck. Here's a little video I took going around the 15mph. curve at Chimney Corner, headed west.

Heavy Gunner might like these-

No, Hawks Nest is between 19 and Charleston, actually between Ansted and Gauley Bridge.
-
Petersburg, Va, it's off of I-95 just before you get to the I-85 split. South Park exit. You can see it from 95, they have truck parking too. There's usually some Abilene trailers out back.

I saw a Bulldog golf cart once, in Winchester. -
Did some fence shopping today

hmmmm- none of the pictures seemed to work! -
hmmmm....me neither, probably kind of rare these days. That's the only tractor that was roped off, all the trucks were, but you could walk right up to the rest of the tractors.

It was hard to keep up with a Snuffy running across Hawk's Nest.

Here's 'just an R-model'
-
I bought a couple of books too, American Trucks of the 50's and American Trucks of the 60's. Not nearly as good as Ron Adams "Big Rigs of the..." series of books, but they were pretty cheap. They had a picture of a G-model in one that looks a lot like Doug Maney's, and one U-model picture.
-
yeah, i'm speaking "Vinny" here, just a R ,not a U.
-
Wish i'd seen that, probably be on again though. The tractor shows and antique tractor pulls are my favorite shows on there.
-
OK, thanks. Heck, I might just go back again!
-
I don't know Vinny, if i'd have taken a close look at everything in that case i'd still be there looking now.When I first saw the Smith's Transfer I thought "great- a U-model"! But it was 'just' an R-model.
-
I'd seen one of them on the tractor show on RFD TV before, never up close before though. I'm glad David posted the info on the sign, I just took one of the advertisement sign but it's hard to read.Bet they were too expensive for regular folks to buy when they came out, probably why they didn't last long. You could probably buy an 8N and a good used pickup for what they cost- 1938 was a little before my time, but that's what i'd guess.
-
Had the hood open today.
-
Don't they have kibbles and bits where you come from? I mean, varmints like possums, groundhogs, or wallabys are one thing, but a bunny?..and you gobbled that thing up like you hadn't eaten for a month! Come on, you should be ashamed! Dozer, shoot me an e-mail to drphil@dooshbag.com and i'll see if I can get you on the show and get you the help you need. We can beat this!
-
It's well worth stopping if you're in the area, I was very impressed.Always liked the M's and Super M's But this is a good looking tractor too. My brother had a 350 Farmall, but he sold it. ...and this GMC was looking good too.
-
Yeah, in the old box with a door on top that you lifted like a freezer door, packed in ice. They had an old bottle collection too.
