Cripes A' Mighty 18 wheeler!

I saw this rig sitting in the parking lot of the Walmart store in Hickory Creek, Texas, this morning about 11:30 AM. Too cool!

Sorry for the so-so picture. It's from a cell phone camera.

I saw a Mooney, I think an older model with a few "201" like mods (windshield, cowling, etc) at H&H Propeller Service in Burlington NC the other day painted the same way, although instead of "Cripes A' Mighty" it said "Cripes A' Mooney" on the side of the engine cowling. I'm guessing that it was owned by George Preddy fan or someone else with more than a passing interest in that aspect of the history of one of Greesnboro's native sons. Didn't get a photo though.

Hey, found it on Barnstormers. Says it's a Mooney M20E, N9140V

Now that's cool. As one who jams gears for a living, that has to be an owner operators truck. It's a corn binder (International) although I'm not sure of the model, probably a 9400. Again very cool
