Just a follow up with some pics. The day was gorgeous but it was kind of a light turnout. Only about 30 vehicles in the parade. Of the 30, only 4 were trucks (the rest were ... tractors). Stovebolt friend, John Vannatta was there with his beautiful '56 F-100. Stovebolt friend Gary Callis had his '59 Reo. And our two trucks (Charlie and the new addition, the '73 Cornbolt formerly belonging to John Vannatta).
I had a '48 Farmall Super A on the trailer. It was restored by our long-lost ODSS Member's (Tinkerbolt) dad.
A coworker of mine, Scott, drove Charlie. It was fun.

Here's mine -- We don't have a Christmas Parade in our town, but back before Thanksgiving, we did have an antique tractor parade to kick off the Holiday Season.There were about 30 tractors and five trucks. Of the five trucks, two belonged to Stovebolt HQ ... Ole Charlie and the '73 Cornbolt. The Cornbolt was (appropriately) hauling a '48 Farmall Super A restored by a friend. Not terribly festive, but still a parade.
Among the spectators, I spotted what appeared to be a '58/'59. The '56 F-100 parked is a beautiful restoration belonging to Stovebolt Friend and former ATHS National President, John Vannatta.

“Cornbolt” not a GM product but John has a bigger hammer than y’all do so don’t any of you get ideas about violating any guidelines.
