Shifters Truck Show set Sept. 22

The third annual Shifters Truck Show has been scheduled to take place in Albany on Saturday, Sept. 22.

“We are looking forward to a great day with friends and checking out some cool rides,” said organizer Robert Snyder. “Help us spread the word!”

The event will be open to all types of trucks that were manufactured through 1987.

“We welcome anything that could be classified as a truck,” said Snyder. “That includes pickups, flat beds, hot rods, rat rods, 4x4s, panel trucks, Model Ts, classics, customs, and old bed trucks.”

Registration is $20 per entry, and will take place on the day of the show, from 8:00 to 11:00 a.m.

“This will only be our third year, and I’m hoping that the show will continue to grow,” Snyder said. “People really seem to like it, and hopefully we won’t have too many conflicts with other truck shows on the same day.”

Albany Eagle Auto will donate door prizes, and trophies will be given to winners in the big categories.

“We’ll choose a Best of Show, Peoples Choice, and a few others,” said Snyder. “Hosting club members will have our trucks on display, but we won’t enter the competition. We also plan to have a whole new group of vehicles on display in the museum by then.” 

The rainout date will be Oct. 13.
