The roads were are taking are great sightseeing roads and are fun to drive with the old truck. Last year 3 of us tried the route and it was beautiful. There are several spots that will be fantastic for the video camera catching the old trucks rolling by. Anyone is welcome to join in, there are several meeting up with us at different points along the way simply due to travel. In our case you could join in at Hereford. If you'd like, send me a message we can trade cell phone numbers so I can give you a heads up when we are going to be there. Doug

About 10 trucks lined up for the Fun-Run, mostly . I guess the lesser brands are in the shop!

We are going to try something that has been discussed for some time, an antique truck fun-run. We will gather at the Dutchway Farm Market on Rt 422 in Myerstown, from there we will depart at approximately 8:00am for Hoppenville. John Haines, an ATCA member whose trucks you have seen before, (Haines and Kibblehouse) is having a show at his home near Pennsburg. I have a route mapped out and have a videographer lined up to videotape along several of the scenic roadways that we will travel. Pennsburg is southeast of Macungie off of Rt 663 east of Rt 29. It will be a nice relaxing ride with some spectacular scenery. So don’t put your trucks away yet! Keep one road ready and contact me if you would like to participate or if you have any questions or concerns. Central Pennsylvania Chapter of ATCA Antique Truck Fun - Run Cruise to the Hoppenville Truck Show October 27, 2007 8:00am Departure Meet at: Dutchway Farm Market Rt 422, Myerstown, PA Contact Doug, @ atca@comcast.net We will convoy to the home of John Haines for the show and to visit his collection.

What a show! I didn't end up with a final count but I'll see if I can get a number to post. Great weather, beautiful trucks and wonderful people@! This was probably the best Days yet! Put it on you calendar for next year, you can't hardly say it is too far or hard to get to, 2 of our Netherlands friends made it, I have a feeling we'll be seeing some of the photos that they took. Thanks to all who participated and Gerhart Equipment for hosting the event it was a great day for everybody. Doug

Barry I'd love to say count me in, let me know when this will be happening and how much fuel is going to cost when it does. I've cut out several shows that I wanted to go to just to save some money for Winchester and a cruise we are planning on having this fall. I see what I can do and who we can gather up to make the cross state trek. Doug

I just created an album of the latest bulldog saved, it is called Saving Superliners. This one is a 400 E-9, 15 Spd R-R, Neway air ride. It is now running good and will make a nice truck. Doug
