About the Book
Most truck enthusiasts remember the flashy "Circus Wagons" of Monfort Packing Co., Greeley, Colorado as they raced back and forth between Greeley and the East Coast during the 1970s. The East Coast meat market was very competitive among meat packers, and with these trucks Monfort was delivering fresh beef and lamb quicker to the East Coast than any other packing company. Generally speaking the photos are sorted by order number, beginning with Order 1. This is followed by lease operators.
