Just a couple shots from a recent Mack Truck Show. My first post here and am looking for comments and ways I can improve. Thanks.

Cool, old trucks just got great style to them. Do you have a full shot of whatever had the chain drive?

Thanks for the reply. That was a Sterling, I don't know the model or year though. I actually don't have a full shot of that truck. Odd because normally I do. Here are 2 other shots of that truck though. There were many other chain drives Macks at the show as well.

That takes me back. One of the many jobs I had in my early years was ata Mack dealer in Pennsylvania. Macks were all built like tanks, and it's not surprising so many have them have survived all these years.

Nice shots.


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

Great series. I really dig the second shot. Nice angle and very sharp. Pity about the grey sky though, but that how it goes.

Very cool shots. Nice clean trucks. I know How much it takes to keep a rig clean, one trip to the gravel pit or the landfill or just down the road and its not clean anymore. Love that chain drive wonder what that sounds like.


A little L goes a long way.

For a show where you can't move them or choose a day with good light, those are pretty good shots. Just keep at it.
