Continental tires adorn 'Class Act' truck

March 24, 2010

"Class Act," a truck that will be entered in the Mid-America Trucking Show's annual Paul K. Young Memorial Truck Beauty Show contest, sports Continental brand truck tires.

Continental Tire the Americas LLC donated a new set of Continental HSR2 and HDR1 tires for the truck. "Class Act," a 1995 Peterbilt, was restored from scrap by 35 high school students from the Clarion County Career Center in Shippenville, Pa.

"We think the Clarion County students and their excitement about their future careers in diesel technology and trucking are the real class act here," says Clif Armstrong, Continental's director of marketing, Commercial Vehicle Tires, the Americas.
