Default Midwest Truck Nationals

They are in Riverside, Mo. on the 9th-11th of Sept. Is anybody going or has anybody gone previous years? Just wondering what kind of an event it is and if what your impression of it was? Dave

I've been going since 2009.
It's a great event and usually has over 200 trucks in the show.
It's free to the spectators and 30 bucks to enter the show.
Stovebolt.com has a good showing every year there and thats where I'll be.

Here is some info.

Hey fellow truck nuts. I.m planning on attending and coming from Ohio. My 65 GMC is currently being painted and in dis-assembly, but still want to come to the Midwest to see the GMCs and talk to the people who own and lust after them. Hope to see you guys and gals there.

Don,

Love that Firetruck!!!!!!!!!!! You bringing it to the show?

I thought I was the only one **** fool crazy enough to buy firetrucks. Not sure if you were a part of the original group but back then I had a 66 6500(?) Firetruck with a 401 Magnum and also bought/sold a 69 Ford Cabover. Firetrucks are the best at being unique. It is usually a pretty safe bet that when you take one to a show/cruise/wherever you'll be the only one there with one.

With that being said, More info on this get-together in Sept? Who's going? When they gonna be there? Is my '78 GMC welcome? Anyway we can park together?

I'm in St Louis so it wouldn't be that bad of a drive.

Please keep me informed.

Dave (aka RustyNut)

Just looked at the stovebolt blog. Saw someone going by Rusty64 in St. Peters. Anyway to contact him direct? Would like to find out what his/her/their plans are. Possibly travel together.
