WORKHORSES of the 21st Century will ring Boort Park for the 137th Boort Show on October 11.
Big rigs that traverse the highways and roads of Australia will be polished and gleaming for the truck show that has become one of the No 1 attractions of the agricultural show.
Truck-driving owners will be chasing big prizes and the coveted best truck in show sash.
Heath Saunders, the Boort signwriter who specialises in adding artistic dimensions to the big rigs, has again put together a schedule of sections that has attracted the interest of truckies.
And after the success of last year’s inclusion of ute sections in the agricultural show program, Kobie Streader, Jett Hird and Nick Scott have teamed again to feature the smaller contemporary workhorses. Many will come straight from the farm paddocks where they have been used shifting feed and checking spring growth of crops, others will still have on board the tools of their young tradie owners.
The young trio has quickly spread the word among friends and are expecting a strong turnout of utes from across Loddon communities.
Beside the modern workhorses will be pioneering horsepower vehicles and engines from more than a century ago.
