Southeast Antique Truck Show

The Southeast Antique Truck gathering was in Huntsville this weekend and I took the opportunity to stop and see the trucks. Sure glad I did not miss this chance, 1500 vehicles from all over the country, free admission and everyone willing to talk a bout thier venicles. Lots of pickups and old over the road trucks. Most of the old tractor trailer rigf drove in mant hauling other old vehicles, today was wash and clean up day with the judging starting tomorrow. If something like this comes to your neck of the woods don't pass up the chance to see it. I have posted about 30 of my favorite vehicles hard to choose from 1500. Hope you enjoy.




This old Studibaker was a beauty, the wood must have cost him several thousand $$$.
This 1951 Mack was driven up from Florida, I think the owner has ever piece of chrome
ever made for the Mack.

1949 Mack truck cut down and made into a pickup. My Favorite.






I had never seen this model of White pickup.




Lots of nice Fords from the 50's. Lennis Lee has an od Ford he needs to restore.





How about a 1927 Mack tour bus.






1921 Mack police patty wagon--jail in the back.







Reading the advertising on the vehicle was intertaining also.








1950 Mack truck made into a class C motor home, very nice inside.
Every show has to have a Beverly Hillbillys truck.



Old Dump truck.


Nice old Mack diesel pickup.

There were a few old tractors, even though it was not a tractor show.

1948 Chev COKE delivery truck.
Studibaker half ton pickup.


1958 Chevy 3/4 ton used as a wrecker.


Two horse wagon for sale $4800, may have sold for $148 when new.

1955 Chevy Cameo, this led to the El Cameo.

Check out the hood on this old wrecker.
Nice Dodge in blue

This Diamond Reo was my favorite-or did I already say that already?

This was one of the trucks that made the first cross country coast to coast, note the solid rubber tires, bet the ride was not very smooth.

Chevy 5 window half ton, 1950 I think.

Remember when Chevy tried to copy th VW pickup?
19 36 International


Chevy half ton with service bed.
International dual wheel fuel delive The owner pulls his 35 ft 5th wheel camper with this 1950 truck (cab is about the
only original part remaining)
