Big Rubber. Big Spokes. Big Truck. The combination to awesome. Clearly the origins of this photo are from a tradeshow back in the day. But from when? Where? You can also smell the grease and fresh rubber. Stay tuned for more Reno 2019 ATHS photo finds.
Brings back great memories of going to the New England Truck Show in Boston with my Dad as a kid back in the 80’s Eric. I always had a great time at those shows collecting product flyers and climbing up into the cabs of all the new trucks.
Hey Dave is there still a show in Boston?
I have no idea Andy. I left after college in ‘94 and my parents moved to Florida in the last 10 years. A quick search for “New England Truck Show” didn’t turn up anything that reminded me of the show I used to go to.
I went to the show in Boston many years ago, by that point it was a glorified vendors market. The local antique truck club had a small display and there were a few modern rigs. It was not worth the 4+ hour drive IMO.
