In my haste I forgot to mention the name is the Keystone Tractor museum in Colonial Heights Virginia
and if you stayed on I95 near Roanoke may have noticed the building. It was only because I spotted it a year ago that I heard about it!!
After I walked the giant Tractor collection I headed to the ramp and overhead door in the corner and find an fantastic collection of restored trucks!
There is just a certain flare and feeling of the American Spirit when you see these old work horses!

I kept ignoring this keeping myself in suspense
It has a Buick V8 added up front to add more horsepower to the existing engine
I still get a headache trying to figure out how this thing works!
There is actually more coming!
That's some collection of trucks! I've only seen that pointy nose/ extra engine truck in a book once.
