American Truck Historical Society

       Welcome! The B/W Chapter of the ATHS serves the greater Washington, DC and Baltimore areas. If you're an old-truck enthusiast from the Capitol area (Baltimore down to Point Lookout and on over to Richmond, Virginia), then you're one of us!* We have regular events throughout the area and throughout the year. Check the Newsletter link in the menu bar above to see what's going on!

       Check us out here then come join us at a live event. You don't have to own/drive an old truck ...

*If you're not from the National Capitol Area but would still like to find out more about the ATHS, please contact us for more information or go to the ATHS Web Site.

Don't let Mike and Gary fool you -- they're actually nice guys ... sort of ... when they're not painting innocent people's wheel hubs pink ...

The "Wild Bunch" -- Our wild and crazy dudes, Mike and Gene, keep an eye on things at Macungie '10.

The National Capitol Region's Antique Truck Club

Cross-Continental Activity!

Chapter trucks line up at the Baltimore Museum of Industry during last year's B-W Chapter show

From Leonardtown, MC to Pleasanton, CA

Members of the B-W Chapter represented the club across the continent in 2010 -- From our own backyard here in Leonardtown, MD to the National Show and Convention in Pleasanton, Calif.

Parades, shows, cruise-ins, swap meets and junk yard tours -- we pretty much have it all going on throughout the show season (and even over the Winter!).

It's more than just sitting around a show field -- it's the comraderie of convoys, the sharing of knowledge, the building of friendships, the making of memories and the preservation of history.

Got an old truck? From mini-trucks to over-the-road mega haulers, we like 'em all.

Don't have an old truck? No problem! You don't need one. All you need is the interest!
