Melvin "Shorty" Hinkle on Beatty
Maybe Roger can remind us of which truck he drove with a fat seat cushion & blocks on the pedals
His "twuck" was #34, and Pete the Porter rode shotgun. It might have seemed funny, but he was well-respected as a man who could herd a semi with the best of them.
Shorty had 6 fingers on either 1 or both hands & he was 1 of the many cigar chompers on Beatty
His tennies reminds us Mr. Hinkle was severely knock-kneed, and could not have negotiated the lot in clown shoes.
