stakeside Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Check out this link to the Smokstak web site. A good summary of the loss of the Hayes collection. https://www.smokstak.com/forum/threads/macdonald-truck-at-hays-antique-truck-museum.127958/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War Truck Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 The rest of the collection is up for sale. I thought it was going to Reno. A sad end: 1917 Standard Type B Liberty U.S.A. 3-Ton Flatbed with Sideboards | K22 | East Moline 2022 (mecum.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30DodgePanel Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 (edited) Would love to have seen the museum in its glory days. Good to see others will be enjoying the trucks though, hopefully the history of each one lives on. The Sterling chassis would make a great farm truck and the many name details are cool imo. Hopefully she ends up back home in the Milwaukee area.

Hopefully she ends up back home in the Milwaukee area. One of the more interesting Sterling trucks in that museum was this 1941 one-man-cab steelhauler: https://forum.studebakerdriversclub.com/forum/your-studebaker-forum/stove-huggers-the-non-studebaker-forum/52444-orphan-of-the-day-05-11-1941-sterling-steel-hauler Only scale model of a pipe/steelhauer truck I've seen is this Saviem S7 make by Dinky Toys in France: https://www.ebay.it/itm/124746549042?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20200818143230%26meid%3D5e9d6139a9cb4d558245cd77d50cef98%26pid%3D101224%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D5%26sd%3D383712994716%26itm%3D124746549042%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DDefaultOrganicWeb%26brand%3DAtlas&_trksid=p2047675.c101224.m-1 Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
