Old Time
Trucks® magazine is the recipient of 42 Excellence in Communication
awards from the Truck Writers of North America. It appears six times a year and contains stories
about classic trucks and trucking history. Our focus is primarily North
American commercial vehicles, but from time to time we include trucks from
other countries.
A feature that appears in every issue is "Kicking Tires."
These pages give members a chance to show off their trucks along with some
information about the truck: where they found it, how they restored it (if
restored), some of the truck's history, specs, etc. We love rusty trucks,
too. |
|
If you have
stories or photos you would like to see published in Old Time Trucks®,
we welcome your submissions. We rely heavily on readers' contributions and
value your input. Our only requirement is that the story be directly related
to antique trucks or trucking history. You may e-mail your stories and
photos to our
editor or send them via US mail to:
