East Coast Mini Truckers were approached by Mack Trucks Customer Center to join them the weekend of October 26 and October 27 for their antique and historical truck show at their Allentown, PA facility. The show will start on Friday and go all day Saturday. We are still working the details out regarding our setup time on Friday.

The show will be held at the Mack Customer Center; the facility is detailed in their brochure: http://www.macktrucks.com/assets/MackMarketing/Brochures/Mack_Customer_Experience_English.pdf

Page 16 is the main showroom for the new trucks, it shows the 4 new trucks by the columns, this is where ECMT will setup.

This show will be our second show for October, we are still planning on the Brookville meet on Saturday, October 13.

Thanks Scott, I'll be in touch.

There will be a dinner at the Mack Facility on Friday, beginning at 6:00 p.m. and everyone from ECMT is invited. They have asked us to speak at the event about the club as well. I will find out what time the dinner starts and let you all know. It would be nice to get as many members there as we can.


Please let me know if you are planning on the dinner so that we can give MACK a head count.

Hey Rod my wife and I will be taking the ride out there Friday night after work and staying over. This will be the second meet which we have attended. I briefly visited the large car show two years,ago but had to leave early .We don't really know anyone. If we are in town early enough we will help set up. Most likely won't be in Allentown till around 8 o'clock Friday night.
