Pretty sure Hardshell, MikeB and Mike Roache will be there. Last I talked to Grigg he was planning to be there too. I am still up in the air. At this point, I don't know if I will be there for a couple days, one day or not at all unfortunately.

Yes, I'll be there from Monday afternoon thru Sunday Morning. We should have Dana's '56 3100 in the show and maybe my '52 Willy's M38 Jeep if we can find a ride for it to get there.
We'll be camping on-site...

Is this the same show normally held up in Winchester, VA every year?
NO, this is the ATHS National Show and Convention that moves around the country every year and is normally held the last week in May, but this year will be the first week in June. Depending on the location they have had as many as 1250 truck show up. The next time it will be on the East Coast will be 2024 in York PA.
The Winchester Show is held every year on the third weekend in September and is hosted by 4 local ATHS Chapters. They normally get about 300 trucks for the two day show (Friday/Saturday).

Things are looking slightly better for at least a 2 day affair. I hope to be there Friday and Saturday anyway.

Don't think I'm going to get down there. A bit out of my travel range at this time. Plus, I just sold my 57 (being picked up this Saturday) and that's what I would normally take on a trip of this distance.
You guys have fun, be safe, and hope to see you next time.

Mike, that's the plan as of right now. Most likely the cabover. Also planning to stay at the Hotel Laramie...…..

I know I will be there on Friday. Possibly Thursday too. My camper is in need of some repairs. I hope to have it back in service for the Winchester show !
After the longest slumber I dusted off the GreenMachine last weekend. Had some things to adjust, and has cleared pre-trip shakedown this afternoon. Heading to Harrisonburg in the morning.
Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Sweet and I hooked up about a mile from the show and cruised in together around 10:30 this morning. Big thanks to Grigg for saving us spots for our trucks near his. Beautiful day today., very nice setting here at the Rockingham County Fairgrounds and lots of awesome trucks. We are currently taking a break from the sun and the action under the Assistant Camp Commandants awning. Thanks Mike! More to come. Seen several Stovebolt brothers but definitely missing a bunch that aren’t here.

Take plenty of pictures and post them up. My next event will be the Southern Jamboree.

I didn't end up taking a whole lot of pictures and the ones I did take may not mean much to others. I think this is one of the best videos I have see of a truck show. Better than a bunch of armature photos.

Thanks for the link, Billy! Saw all the Stovebolters and I saw you walking up to your truck! A very cool video.
So ... didn't spend any time with ole Charlie this past weekend, but I did wash and clean up my work truck -- the '84 359 Peterbilt ("Corvette Dash" and the big cam 400 Cummins ... ) ... if that means anything ...

Hy guys, thanks for the links to the videos, I hope every attendee had a good time and a safe trip there and home again. That was the first live convention I have missed since 1989, all thanks to Covid 19 and a closed border between Canada and the United States
