Thanks Guys! They were not filming at the show. I was disappointed and was hoping the truck would make the show. I did get some interest from a local magazine who want to do a story. They said they if If didn't have any professional pictures they would send out a photographer to any site. I am going to take them up on the offer.

Very cool Keith!
Too bad he wasn't filming for the show. Who knows, maybe he'll come back and feature your truck one of these days.
Invest in some Rain-X. It works really well

Bobby, like I said I was disappointed they weren't taping but it was great to meet him anyway.
I definitely need some Rain-X in the glove box or better yet install the damn windshield wipers
. The wiring is all there. I just need to drill some holes. Also need the correct wiper arms. When I bought the truck it only had the drivers side wiper. I kinda of like the look without them. I don't like having the windshield blocked a little by the arm.

Keith,
I can get away with it out here in New Mexico. We havent had any kind of moisture in ages.
I've started fabricating a wiper system for my truck but its very low priority.
The fire truck does really look clean without wipers

Thanks Joe. The Thrill Shows were held at Soldier Field. Every year the show packed the people in. I searched Google and found out that 1938 was the year they started. They stopped during the war and I believe they still have them although not at the stadium.
