10-4 Magazine November 2024

24 10-4 Magazine / November 2024 two-tone green with a silver stripe 2023 Kenworth W900L, built by our friends at VDZ Customs. Tanner Lambrecht, who was a past winner of our “Best of the Best Pick” award and later featured in the magazine (February 2022), was also lookin’ good with his bright orange KW with blue stripes – he also bagged 1st Place in his class and the Best of Show Combo award. And no “No Coast Large Cars” show would be complete without a bunch of sweet rides from the folks at Lifetime themselves, along with an entire section dedicated to just IMT Transport, which included a newly built bright orange A-Model Kenworth that was getting a lot of attention. They also now own the 1986 Peterbilt 359 that Jake Bast used to own, which was on our cover in July 2019, and it was at the show, as well. It was also nice to see our friends and past cover truckers from Delabarre Trucking out of Bismarck, ND. Bringing out their three working show trucks, including the one that was on our cover in October 2022, these guys always look good and their iron never disappoints. After a great photo shoot onMonday, we headed back north to Minneapolis to fly home the next morning. We would like to thank Nicky and JR at Lifetime for treating us like family and making us feel so welcome in their neck of the woods. And thanks to the fine folks at Shooterz, a local bar and grill, who fed us almost every night we were in Iowa. The food was great, and it was directly across the street from our hotel, so that was nice. We met great people, saw lots of trucks we had never seen before, and had a good time hangin’ out in Iowa with our Midwestern friends. Nothing beats that Midwest feel and nowhere will you find friendlier folks or more pleasant surroundings. We hope to see you all next Labor Day Weekend for a party in Iowa – with no coast in sight. n
