That shop looks fantastic and even more so with all those great looking trucks. Thanks for sharing those pics, will make some good screen savers. Too bad TN is so far away, it would be great to hang out with all of you.

Steve and Dick C.

You think I ought to leave the spare fender instead of changing it out? The fender in the bed is a passenger side that needs repair at the fron bottom where it attaches to the running board. I need a GOOD passenger rear fender for the 56' I would like to build one day. Thanks for looking.

A pigeon-eye view of the apex of America’s industrial might.

It would have made for a great reenactment if you guys donned Texaco coveralls/hats and came out to check the oil, radiator, fill air in the tires, gassed the tank (ethyl or regular?), and cleaned the windshield of one of the trucks.

Great setting and pictures. Thanks for posting.

Donald, thanks for getting this put together! The pics turned out great! We should do this more often and invite more truckers.

Awesome pictures, Trucks and Cool Service station. I sure liked Tennesse when I lived there for a couple years, That was until the locals ran us out! (threatening phone calls, mysterious fires multiple times around the property, gunshots through the front door, (time to Move.) LOL
They called it "Their Mountain" between Altamont and Gruetli-Laager

Brian, it turned out way better than I could have ever imagined. Yeah next time if we can do it more trucks would be great. Here are two more pictures I thought would give a different perspective.

Carnut no in my 55' that is the stock seat. It has been recovered and has a center armrest.

The gentleman that owns the Purple 84' F150 is building an extended cab F1 for a friend in his shop right now.
