In answer to John Whale's question (why his name on this forum isn't 'Orca' or 'Moby' I'll never know ), Fletch from Classic Restos is coming to film the run and will be doing a double episode at this stage. As luck would have it he is an avid old truck fan and jumped at the chance. I've tried to encourage a DVD out of him, we'll all have to get in his ear on the weekend!!

my way or the highway???????

well we now have 75 trucks enterd over 150 people to go on the run brad
