We bought 1978 International Transtar II

Follow the restoration journey

Good morning Truck Parking Club Members,

We hope your New Year is off to a great start.

This week, we added 61 new locations. We’re currently sitting at 3,781 total with 61,700 spaces.

We’ve got a location preference survey this week. It’s brand new. So ALL Trucker Members are able to take it to earn a $25 promo code.

We bought a cabover!

A 1978 International Transtar II, to be precise.

It's been a goal of ours since the beginning to buy a fully grown cabover to complement Tiny Trucker Tim, but it had to be the right one.

Luckily, friend of the company, owner op, and cabover enthusiast Chad Keegan found the right one in a barn in Muncie, IN. So, he did the deal and drove it down to the Clubhouse.

He will be helping us breath new life into it.

We have big plans for it and will be sharing the journey on our socials & Youtube.

Stay tuned!
