I still his trucks going up and down the freeway here in California. All the trucks say Wildwood Express which is what he called his BAH. Before he ran BAH he ran this Sanger in BGH called Truck It. 

The answer to my last guess who was

Joe Babel in the Runnin Bare BAH / UFH which was owned by Wally Stout.

Jacko, we have the name correct, Celia Hitch it is,hop but the boat name is incorrect. This particular boat name had a story behind it according the article back in 1983! Gaz

same boat but this is when rob hall had the boat. and it does look like augusta. rob never ran here since the course has been turned around if i am not mistaken. I know it was when rob was running the boat because we never ran it with a cowling.

IT LOOKS LIKE DAYTON OHIO, AND THE ALABAMA EXPRESS WAS OUR LAST BLOWN ALCOHOL HYDRO BEFORE WE MOVED UP TO BLOWN FUEL, WILD GUESS COULD IT BE ON OF DOC'S BOATS OR JOHN HASS'S BOAT
