i think i saw a billboard about a big rig truck show in aug or something but now i cant find anything about it. if anyone has info let me know thanks

 

Great Salt Lake Truck Show

 

haha i knew you would be the one to answer this thank you! you goin?

 

Oh yeah, I'll be there... I hoped to bring down a truck, but thinking I won't be ready in time.

 

what is it and why wont it be ready

 

Well, it's a '75 Diamond Reo Royale CO8864D with a Detroit 8V71T and a Fuller RTO9513... it won't be ready because paint and upholstery is expensive and all the little things are time consuming. If I have the time to work on it, it means I'm not working, so I don't have the money for it. Hahaha.


I MIGHT drive my pick-up down to the show, but I'm not paying to register it IN the show.


Unless the boss wants to put my work truck in the show, but he'd have to shut me off for a week to do some cleaning. Hahaha.

 

dang man that is a sweet truck! to bad i wont get to see it. and is that the mack dog on your ford?

 

Thank you. Yes, it's a bulldog.

 

haha thats awesome i was talkin bout doin that the other day

 

Peterbilttrucker - Take it anyway. I'd love to get a closer look at BOTH of your trucks. I appreciate your efforts keeping some of the older stuff around and running. I think it's cool!

 

Thank you very much, I might be bringing the pick-up down, I really don't know if I can trust the Reo that far just yet. You folks are definetely welcome to make your way towards Brigham City or hit me up if you're in the area, I'd be happy to show them to you.

 

so duz it cost any money to get in i tried to find cost but there wasnt anything that i saw. and let me know what day your going i would love to see that ford its awesome! im going to try and go both days but if i cant im going 14th to see the truck pull

 

I will be there Saturday, there is an entry fee, can't remember what it will be though. I'll TRY to bring the pick-up down, I'm freakin' busy with work though.
