Finally worked my way through Dave's video. The only thing better than the classic rigs shown was when a classic truck was hauling other classic trucks.
Mom and her family owned a trucking company called C.R. Graham and Sons - based in Sacramento California. The family became wealthy as their business thrived in the 40s and 50s. A few of her brothers began collecting/restoring trucks just like the ones shown in the video. It was no coincidence Mom married a trucker who was a Bed Bug (trucker slang for a furniture moving company).

Here is a video of my neighbor.
What you will see in this video is only a very small part of his collection. He has expanded his estate to 2 acres--so he can add a lot more buildings
He has one man that does nothing but maintain the collection----much of which was at the truck show in Macungie. His entire fleet (working) is Macks and Fords.
He is in the process of designating his "estate" as a museum. (I can't wait to see how that impacts my taxes)

That would be a typo----it should read 23
He keeps buying----which is a good thing since he is an "improver".
He also has a full time gardener (year round) who is a very talented young lady. All of his places are "trademarked" by huge tulip beds, which are stunning
