I have seen the Bell telephone truck and the postal truck. Those are the only two I have seen. They are great! They also have a 31 fire truck and a long wheel base AA truck. I forgot the owners name but it was in the restorer about two months ago.

Presently on display there are: the 255A delivery, the telephone truck and an A postal truck. Also a beautiful town car, AA tow truck, AA express delivery and an all original (with only 2000 miles) AA fire engine. More to come soon.

Last night at the Ice Cream Social, most all the A's arrived and parked along the entire street area and in the center. There are some really fine examples of restored, unusual and original cars here.

Some pictures of Puyallup. I can only upload three at a time. There is also an original woody wagon which is only one of single digits left. Very rare.

The Postal Truck is owned by Gloriann Nau. She retired from the Postal Service and I think she was a Post Master in one of the smaller towns here in WA.

The Telephone truck is mine and I retired from "Ma Bell". We are often confused with each other. I wonder if it's he paint. They are similar. AT&T Green vs Postal Green.

watching the fine point cars being detailed (from a distance as I was behind the rope) I gotta tell you, there are some really spectacular cars here. The way the lighting reflects on the paint gives the cars a dream like appearance. Talk about a kid in a candy store.

Tomorrow we get to view them. That's going to be a great afternoon.
