It belongs to KenQuitinsky, owner of Q Fence Co. ofTelford, Penn. According to Ken, he and his crewput in a lot of long, hard days, and theyexpect nothing less of their us say from the start that Ken struck would have been a frontrunningcontender any year that the Fence TruckContest was held.

2 It just so happenedthat Ken s Truck was the only qualifiedentry in the 2005 Contest , which madethe judging kind of easy. Early on, an-other Truck was sent in, but it was usedmostly for sales calls and hauling ma-terials. Since the Fence Truck Contestis open only to installer trucks, Ken swas the only vehicle that fit that the fact that the Chevy sewedit up all by itself does not detract fromthe solid vehicle that has paid for itselfover and again during its 15 years onthe job. Our Truck recently had amakeover. It has been converted froma four speed on the floor to an auto-matic on the column.

3 A rebuilt 350cubic inch motor and transmission isnow installed. Dan, our mechanic, hadmany variables to overcome for this up-grade. Rocky, our auto body man, willsoon be giving it a fresh coat of paint, said Quitinsky. Q Fence Co. has been using thistruck for 15 years now. It is a moneymaker and will now enter a new statein its life cycle, he Chevy has a metal sand boxwelded right to the bed of the Truck , andthe crew finds it easy to off-load mate-rial from the low profile open noted in the November issue ofWorld Fence News, when this entry firstappeared, the Q Fence Co.
