i wish my daddy was still alive to watch this with me , all he ever did for a living was drive big rigs, heavy machinery, and dump trucks and fuel trucks..if he was here , he would point out so many things about these magnificent vehicles and tell me all about them , as he was a very knowledgeable man. he was born in 1929 , so he has seen most of vehicles like these.
I had the honor of work side by side with my dad for 10 yrs. He had a restoration and custom shop. We built strictly daily driver ..if you wanted a " trailer queen" (as dad called them) go some place else. This is a show we would have done a road trip for. Thank you for those great times dad love you and miss you even more.

I started building model trucks back in the early 70s when AMT and then MPC and Ertl came out with a lot of them. Seeing some of these trucks was a real flashback to that. Thanks!
i love how they preserve these vehicles of the past, but back then their milage rate is very low so some restoration channels find these vehicles hid in forests or locked away in garages because the previous owner of the vehicle couldn't repair it, these days most antique cars have modified modern engines since the old engines cannot replaced, so the body is what is preserved because they were made of pure steel, while our modern car bodies are made of plastic. great video! :)
@30:34 and @35:27 are the moments we all came here for. Love all the rest of them too, but the insane styling of the cab on this one makes it by far my #1 truck. I also love the styling on the old locomotive outside that place; it's best seen @34:02

Good lord what memories,, I must first say the best units I saw had to have been all of the Dalton Trucking vehicles , Very nice, very original . I started as a wash boy at a trucking company when I was just a kid but I knew every inch of a lot of different tractors. The owner of the company was a bit of a collector as well as nostalgic . He took the oldest units of the companie and restored them like new, A 1966 COE White Freightliner with a straight 318 detroit diesel, A White 4000 day cab and the year was about 69 I think. The white still have the "velvet ride suspension " which I can tell you was far from velvet as you could get and a 180 Hp or 220 Hp cummins w/ compression release. A Diamond Reo tandem axle dump truck about 1950ish. A international R190 dump truck w/ the rd450 engine and splitter rear axle,, I haul tons of gravel with both those trucks in the earlier 1990s putting new base/ gravel into the lot of the compaine. A 49 pick up and 40 pick up . Still more but those were the major units. Thanks for the video, Great seeing so many of the tractors I remember so well.
Great memories! The Dalton fleet is always a real treat to see. Check out my ATHS videos from 2017 and 2019 to see my favorite footage of the Dalton fleet!
There's a few things in here I've worked on. The electric truck wagon thing (that's my cousin driving) I believe was used to move huge rolls of paper for a newspaper company. The Futureliner (they called it the Junkliner) is set on a garbage truck chassis but it was a real Futureliner. It sold a while ago. By far the best thing in here I've worked on is Dennis Wells' 1970 289 at 26:31. It has a 400 big cam and a 13 speed, we used it to haul my '52 GMC fire engine home last year.
Wow, you've worked on a few of my favorites! Any idea what Brad Boyajian and Dennis Wells are up to now? I would love to see some of their trucks again at a future ATHS show!
@@twinrodders Right now we're having a new (correct) tailgate made for Dennis' '32 Ford BB canopy express truck from the original rusted one. We have Brad's Twin Coach bus in the shop getting a correct radiator, we rebuilt the rear axle, new wiring, new clutch and some other things, We've also got a full restoration going on a Fageol Helms Bakery Coach for him, and I've been working on an army M274 Mule for him as well.
CONNECTIVITY ... bridges of time through the ages as man learns to move forward from animals driven to a much faster pace and comfort as the time written ... NOSTALGIC especially the CHEVROLET whose early merchants use in peddling their products ... thanks
Love the old Air Conditioner on one of the last pickup trucks.. have not seen one of those in many a year.. Not really an air conditioner as much as a compressor that then pushes a solid air flow into the trucks cab when moving at speed.
Actully, it's a swamp cooler add-on that you could mount in the window of just about any car or truck at the time. Load the thing with ice and water, get to about 30mph, and pull the starter cord to get the little turbine spinning. Voila'! Cold wet air in your vehicle. Great for dry climates.
I believe that is not a replica, I found this info on wikipedia, Displayed the “World of Science” exhibit; also displayed the “Versatile Metal Powder” exhibit. Purchased by Brad Boyajian in 2002, Boyajian said he believes that the Futurliner that he converted into a car hauler is No. 5. That Futurliner’s rear axle and body section went with Futurliner No. 8 to Sweden, and its front axle went to the NATMUS Futurliner No. 10 restoration project.
Nickel Vanner the futureliner has the engine in the rear, and has dually wheels both front and rear, so I'm pretty sure it's just made to look like it :)
I caught that too but it noted that he sold the front and rear axles along with the rear body section, so it would be on a modified frame. I have a close friend in Iowa that just bought Bus #3, the one that Kindig-It restored in 2014. He is hoping to bring it to Goodguys in Des Moines IA this month. He knows a lot of history on these, I will ask him about it.
I liked the 1979 GMC Fire truck and the 1941 GM Futurliner.The GM's front is like a train engine.There are 4 tires on the front axle. Forward of the right front tires is a door for the stairs to the cab. Driver and two passengers.The left door is the engine. Used in the Parade of Progress 1936,1939 and 1953. maybe 1954.1940 Autocar is more like a shortbed crew cab pickup.
I looked up the disposition and known whereabouts of the surviving Futureliners after seeing one of those restoration shows and I finally realized what the two battered hulks of Route 41 in North Chicago Illinois were. Those two disappeared about 20 years ago when the truck shop they were at closed and were listed as location unknown but also didn't list any flatbed conversions. Got me wondering if that might be one of the North Chicago ones.
My favorite by far was the 70s KW W-900A, the orange Pete needlenose a close 3rd. Second goes to the 5-ton. Really I liked all of the true semis, that were still tractors. Some just sounded better than others. The old Mack was really cool
Para hacer un gran País, hay que disponer de una buena maquinaria. Hoy por hoy se hecha de menos(solo se estudia la duración y no la dureza) Enhorabuena por esos vehículos tan decentes
Вот что значит не было войны как СССР и Германии, В СССР каждый грамм метала был на учёте для победы в ВОВ, Америке повезло столько золота из СССР вытянула. Вот и нет в самой большой стране механики прошлого. А вообще молодцы американцы .
5:43-Is it towing trailer? Car with white red cab. 6:33-Mini Truck Zaprzęgowa. Only that there is no sled. 9:34-What is a truck? 29:39-Tracker. 30:45-This is the same, 5:43. 35:37-with Windows it looks like an airplane. 37:04-Looks old.
They stopped building them for some time, they are being built again but these young drivers aren't really fans of them...back when I drove a Pete cabover lot of drivers referred to them as " coffins on wheels" as there's nothing between you and what's out there.
+Ahomestead FranklinNC I imagine during the summertime it would get all hot in that thing since you had all the engine heat coming up underneath the floorboard which makes the a/c work harder.
@@kevinrichards3288 : understatement....I actually put ice on my so called mattress and threw towels over it to help cool down at night. And you'd think you'd be nice and toasty in the winter...just the opposite...the ol school way before canvas screens was to cut cardboard to help it regulate heat better.
@@scottm.franklinnc7942 thats no lie. Hope you did not have spring suspension on the old concrete roads either. Between tires and springs you needed to keep spares at all times. Rough riding. Air ride saved the day!
Love your film! Great footage! I always love going to that show every year. I have a suggestion though, there is a truck show they have in Irwindale every year it’s called trucking for kids. No body ever makes full videos of that show. Would be nice if someone would. Nice content.
I've known about TFK for about 5 years, I used to go to other shows on the same day, but recently I've been meaning to check it out but keep forgetting about it! Even worse is that I live really close to Irwindale Speedway, so the drive there is no problem. I'll try and remember to check it out this year.

I wish I had my trucks there: 1972 Studebaker and 1901 Oldsmobile Reproduction that can be both a ca or small light load hauler, 1988 Pete and 1996 Pete.
Is that a Curtis Publishing Company electric truck, riding on the Futureliner, and toting an electric golf cart? The publishing company was in Philadelphia; Saturday Evening Post and all that. They were still running some of these electric vehicles when I grew up in Philly in the Fifties. As I recall; long time ago. The driver was way up there, and could really see the traffic. No Cab!! And Philly gets COLD. At least I think that's what that thing is. Good shot of it around the two minute mark; and then later at the twenty or so minute mark it loads itself on the bed of the Futureliner
So the originals originally had a lot of wood??? Amazing. Wow. Electric truck -- and it hauled the heaviest of sturff: Newspapers and magazines and newsprint
Well hum I have a few that could go to that or something like it once restored, I have a 71 GMC 3/4 ton hemi V6, 86 f250 Diesel 4 speed, and ex-military 6x6 trucks one 8x8
Drop in gate latch 4 x 4 needs flashing collar just above where it fits into the ground to deflect water/ice. This will keep 4 x 4 from sitting in water rotting. I tried the same kind of idea with steel and it rusted away because I didn’t deflect water.
I imagine the owner added it just because he could & was able to obtain an EMD bell! Note the location of the event per the description was at a railway museum, so no surprise some attendees & exhibitors were both rail & truck aficionados.
@@samesamel There is a tv show on Discovery titled Kindig Design. They were rebuilding one but up to the fully original version, jet engine demo including.
Does the video show an authentic GM Futurliner (see front at 26:27)? I wasn't aware that any of the original 12 units had their back cut off. At least one complete Futurliner has sold for $4 million. I can't imagine the one shown here being the real deal.
Wasn't there only 2 or 3 of those GM Futurliner's made? The other one's I saw were all closed in and sort of a rolling showroom for GM's 'new' technology.😉👍
That's what I came here for and was rather disappointed. That was originally a gas powered IH V-liner. Won't California emissions allow them?? The IH and the Pete 351 @ 35:00 were the only ones that blew smoke out of the whole bunch.
You have to have an appreciation for Detroits, otherwise most restorations are anything but. Too much noise in the cab, would drive you nuts on a long trip. California still allows restoration of anything.. they haven't got that bad yet. Just my opinion. No facts here!
Bryan B - USAutos98 Sorry for my misspelling! So it’s an original, WOW to bad it could not of been saved as they are worth a lot of $$$$! I have gone to school for auto body and worked at a body shop and from young on helped my older brother do body work. We have brought vehicles back from where others say its not repairable. I just hope this Futurlinder was not one that would of been repairable! How it opens in the back it very cool for sure!
@@twinrodders hey Bryan, curious did parts go to the liner that kendig (sp) in Utah did...saw an episode on his show bi**hen rides when it was the Vilocity channel... it's now motor trend

Big Red was like something straight out of " Buck Rogers " . Beautiful , Art Deco , and still WORKING . Great to see some GENUINE Internationals too .
The Large red truck is not Big Red, nobody knows where Big Red is at the moment.
@@dsphotographyedinburgh4973 . " Big Red " wasn't intended as a Title , but rather a Descriptive for the GM Futurliner .

Some of these cars look like Space Oddities! Just amazing! Thank you loads for this video!!
Awesome Pieces of Art 😀👍
As the video started and kept playing, I thought to myself, “please don’t let anyone hit that Futureliner!” Kind of a bad spot to park it.

Got me wondering if that might be one of the North Chicago ones.
Don't think so. This was a Southern California truck for many years before it was sold and shipped to Germany
@@twinrodders ok thanks that would be the German Futureliner listed in the survivor list then.

Drop in gate latch 4 x 4 needs flashing collar just above where it fits into the ground to deflect water/ice. This will keep 4 x 4 from sitting in water rotting. I tried the same kind of idea with steel and it rusted away because I didn’t deflect water.

Are we going to be looking so good after the resurrection? :-)
lindo vídeo
3:35 it’s the newer GMC off a snow runner
That truck they where loading the little wagon and golf cart onto reminded me of fallout
3:30 What model is the this GMC truck?
9:15 Those pipes looks so brutal
That Red And White Vehicle Standing There Looks Like The Old GMC Bus In That World Fair Many Many Yrs. Ago.WDA.
wow good~unique..
THIS IS SO COOL.
Lol looking a lot like my garage in snowrunner.
Wasn't there only 2 or 3 of those GM Futurliner's made? The other one's I saw were all closed in and sort of a rolling showroom for GM's 'new' technology.😉👍
Actually here’s a great web page with lots of Futurliner info: bit.ly/CCFuturliner
they made 12
29:36 the only cool Detroit in the bunch!
Listen to her crank!
That's what I came here for and was rather disappointed. That was originally a gas powered IH V-liner. Won't California emissions allow them?? The IH and the Pete 351 @ 35:00 were the only ones that blew smoke out of the whole bunch.
You have to have an appreciation for Detroits, otherwise most restorations are anything but.
Too much noise in the cab, would drive you nuts on a long trip.
California still allows restoration of anything.. they haven't got that bad yet.
Just my opinion. No facts here!
Wish there was a better look at that Powell. Not many of those still around.
@theflatbedchick, thought you'd like this. What do you think on the the truck at the 2:09 mark?
ATHS was my crew in GTAV 😂
The best part was seeing the GM future liner! It that a replica or an original one cut down?
Brp Fan It's a real Futurliner, the back was removed to donate parts for restoring Futurliner No. 8
Bryan B - USAutos98 Sorry for my misspelling! So it’s an original, WOW to bad it could not of been saved as they are worth a lot of $$$$! I have gone to school for auto body and worked at a body shop and from young on helped my older brother do body work. We have brought vehicles back from where others say its not repairable. I just hope this Futurlinder was not one that would of been repairable! How it opens in the back it very cool for sure!
@@twinrodders hey Bryan, curious did parts go to the liner that kendig (sp) in Utah did...saw an episode on his show bi**hen rides when it was the Vilocity channel... it's now motor trend
@@twinrodders Parts used for the one on the Motortrend show Bitchen Rides.
@@scottm.franklinnc7942 I guess we saw the same. Amazing show and great rebuilt done!
