  • You can't keep a good Stovebolter down -- We are up to part Nine of this continuing saga by Steve "Builder" VandenBerg. Our Erwhipee guy shows us he was nuts before we knew him. He's even got an N'Sane t-shirt!
Stovebolt Sagas

The Stovebolt Sagas -- Stovebolters' epic adventures searching out those elusive, restorable (or restored, or even mint) old Stovebolts! First person accounts that record what it was like, in the heyday, as it were, of the old truck hobby, to actually find an un-restored, all original Stovebolt in its natural environment. Your experiences are the heroic sagas of today -- your adventures may thrill as-yet unborn generations of Stovebolters!

"It Ran When I Parked It" -- Our annual photo contest since 1999. Running off an inspiration by Skip Whitfield (Fatfenders), IRWIPI captures the Big Lie we've all heard when calling on a truck for sale ad -- "It Ran When I Parked It."

The Stovebolt Poster Contest -- Not quite annual (yet!) but still fun! We seem to have some very creative folks among us and here's their show case!
