ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

I'll start off with the '15 Convention at York, PA. I helped park the last trucks in the last possible spaces. It was down to squeezing in El Caminos!

Thanks for posting Special K,that was my first national aths, I got to drive my 72 c50 ramp truck,lots of f nice trucks and people.

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

Oh you did? I couldn't go. So you have that beautiful red ramp truck you did. I talked to you as you were about to leave the Tri-State show, I think, in '17. You were backed in against the fence right next to the lane in from the north. I hope I run into you again. The Mason-Dixon chapter has our show on the first Sunday in May at Gladhill Tractor Mart (JD) at the top end of US340 in Jefferson, MD. It's combined with a tractor show & pull. Not too bad a show if it doesn't rain. A bit far for you, but not real bad.

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

i have never been to that show,but definitely put on my calender, thats not far ,are you bringing a truck

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

Yeah. I drive an unrestored white '72 GMC K2500 Sierra i use like it's the '70s (except winter).

Just over the hill from you in Rileyville, where my sister lives:
Attachment 1883052

That was the morning I was heading to that Tri-State show in Coldbrook in '17.

Here ya go. This is your truck, right? I guess it was '16 when I talked to you... and took the picture

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

That's it,hope to make Frederick, lots of irons in the fire,I like your truck as well.

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

Thanks. The rusted rockers probably bother you, being a body man. they bother me, too, but I run it all summer and it needs to be a winter project. It's obvious you do good work.

My great grandmother was a Saum. The house my granmom was born in still stands proudly in Saumsville. Granmom was born a Bell, married a Hicks (my name). If I'm in the area I'll stop by to bug you, just to say hi. Wouldn't want to hold a man up doing his job for long. Like my buddy's sign in his shop says, "If you have nothing better to do, go do it somewhere else" Ha Ha Ha!

i like patina as well as restored, sometimes the effort of restorations prevents us from actually just driving and enjoying our trucks as they are . my other truck is a ten year old project that stalled, moved twice in baskets,and just now getting a second wind. been much better off fixing brakes and riding.

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

Yep, pretty much why mine's not restored yet. I get guys telling me "You need to restore that thing" and I come back with "Why?". I could say more, like "How about you buy one and restore it?". I have said "Been there done that. I'm enjoying driving this one". I have been there with many trucks. Get one done and start worrying about messing it up, where you can leave it, butt heads tapping into it, scratches in the bed... I would like to get another truck for the ladder racks and just use it to run it when I want to. When I restore it I'd like to put a low-profile utility body on it and letter it up nice. I ran utility bodies on most of my work trucks

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

I have a 64 one ton ,and a utility bed may be what it gets. First I have to get 66 truck done

Re: ATHS National Convention & Show Videos
 

They are handy and a handsome unit behind the cab. I'm on the look out for one. The new ones have gone up steadily and are very expensive now. I used Reading bodies and parts are easy to get. We had a truck body place here in Mt. Airy up until the recession. I was hooked up pretty well with them. I was the guy who bought new bodies for old Chevys. They pretty much just did new truck upfitting
