OHTM is transformed into the center of the universe for antique truck, tractor and commercial vehicle enthusiasts during one of our most popular events of the summer. Visitors are invited to explore the big rigs up close during “Touch-a-Truck.” Antique ground vehicles, including a bevy of pre-1920 trucks from the Museum’s collection, are demonstrated alongside exciting driving demonstrations that show off some of the large commercial trucks on display at the event. A fabulous antique aeroplane show generates plenty of additional excitement! Hagerty Youth Judging, assorted kids activities and Model T rides ensure that there is plenty of fun for the whole family at this event.
Gates open to the public at 9 a.m.; exhibitor gates open at 8 a.m. The show will go on rain or shine and a variety of indoor demonstrations and activities are planned in the event of inclement weather.All pre-1995 vehicles and all organized automobile clubs are welcome to exhibit.

In addition to an assortment of classic, vintage and antique vehicles, an array of family activities will include demonstrations of vehicles from the Museum’s collection, free Model T rides and (weather permitting) antique aeroplane demonstrations.
