Hemmings Motor News Blog

Hemmings Motor News has been around since 1954. We're proud of our heritage, but we're also more than the Hemmings full of classifieds that your father subscribed to. Aside from new editorial content every month in Hemmings, we have three monthly magazines: Hemmings Muscle Machines, Hemmings Classic Car and Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car.

While our editors traverse the country to find the best content for those magazines, we find other oddities related to the old-car hobby that we really had no place for - until now. With this blog, we're giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what we see and what we do during the course of putting out some of the finest automotive magazines you'll ever read.

Old Trucks Rule Buckeye Country

Posted August 01, 2012 9:00 AM by dstrohl

We have been eyeballing the Old Time Truck Show as it's grown into a serious regional history event and gathering of the clans who love trucking history. This year's edition is July 27 and 28 at its home, the Roberts Centre in Wilmington, Ohio, off Exit 50 on Interstate 71, about halfway between Columbus and Cincinnati.

Among the prizes to be awarded are separate cash long-distance handouts for trailered and driven trucks, oldest truck, and $500 to the people's choice. Truck registration is free and so is camping, but RVs have to be self-contained because no hookups are available. The Kings Island theme park and fabulous U.S. Air Force Museum are both within easy reach. A primary show organizer is Shirley Sponholtz, editor of Old Time Trucks magazine of Richmond, Indiana, who provided these photos from the 2011 show.
