They have their own special atmosphere and charm.

Log Trailer for about 30 years, cargo holds festivals and in 2006 the prize awards Nordic Trophy - the most-most impressive truck of the year.

58.Ponyatno that trucks have long been tuning business on the desire to decorate their workaholic for decades made money
And it's a whole industry for a long time, a sea of ​​different studios and producers all chrome tubes and optics
But the contest was conceived as a selection of beautiful workaholic, not fair dandy
And let the last ten years in the competition (to win) participating teams, not single, but it's still alive, actually working machines
And speaking of teams - it is not very, very low cost, which entails sponsorship and advertising stickers
Virtually every truck bus came with a ton of makeup and a dozen people
Its construction, preparation of the exhibition - a joint work and joint funding

Although also built a team and not without sponsors ...
