    I had the pleasure of seeing Alan Gaines unveil the midnight Express, one night at Kamper Arena in Kansas City, Missouri. He took his boots off, turn the lights on blew the train horn and pull the sled straight out the arena. That was one of the best nights as a teenager. I miss those good old days.

      So cool, I have those exact memories too, and am having a lot of fun finding these trucks and tractors and the guys that built them

      @@robguysgarage5422 as a matter fact I noticed in this video when Alan Gaines backed up to hook up to the pulling sled. If you look to the right side, you can see the green monster bush, jet engine pulling tractor that art Arfons used to have if I’m not mistaken it was two twin turbo jet engines that shot flames 🔥 in the air that was my first time seeing one of those jet tractors, but I do remember the bush logo on the side of that tractor

      I believe so, I think it was a Chevy truck with a wood stake bed on it but I can't seem to find any pictures now

    I can’t believe how filthy dirty they let Allen’s trucks get, it’s disgusting stupid Hillbilly’s man. These are legendary trucks . What the hell is wrong with them? I remember OBS when I was a kid and it my all time favorite truck as well.
