Antique Truck Vehicles
Friday, September 12, 2025

The Nuss Collection is a tribute to the trucking industry of the early to mid 1900s.
Featuring carefully preserved antique Mack trucks and construction vehicles, this collection salutes the powerful machines responsible for Building America and every truckload in between.

The Nuss Collection is the result of the Nuss family’s longtime dedication to keeping businesses on the move and their passion for vintage vehicles.
This collection has been the dedicated hobby of Greg Nuss, Vice-President and COO of Nuss Truck & Equipment and is shared by the entire family.

Here is a sample of some of the vehicles that have been at our show in the past.
