ATHS Truck Show at Echuca 2013 - Part 4 - English and European Trucks

The American Truck Historical Society (ATHS) held their Echuca show on September 7 and  8, 2013. It was a great weekend. The venue, Rotary Park, was good, the weather was great and we had  a fun weekend. Well done, ATHS! There were around 220 vehicles on display and here are the English and European trucks - we were totally out numbered by American trucks. Who knows, perhaps eventually historic truck owners will  recognise the stylish superiority of European and English trucks and they will begin to dominate truck shows!  If you want to see the Macks, which were the featured make, then click here. If you want to see the Dodges and Kenworths then click here. To see all the other American makes such as Inters, Fords, Chevs, Whites and Diamond Ts - click here.
