Finishing Touches Before Showtime

Display cabinet for part of the Dynaflow exhibit is taken from truck as Parade sets up.

Work goes on, left, for Patrick Korth and Robert Sickinger as pre-show visitors watch.

An exhibit takes shape. Lexington shows were staged on the University of Kentucky campus.

This is how the exhibit looked when it was ready for the spectators.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

If you have any additional information about the history or whereabouts of additional Futurliners, we would like to hear from you. Our objective is to capture as much of the history of these vehicles as possible.
