Based out of Missouri, veteran driver Art Bell has been trucking for 50 years, running his own outfit most of that time. He has seen lots of ups and downs (including his own company peaking at 35 trucks at one time). \u201cI never got rich, but I never used people either,\u201d said Art. Today, he can proudly display his name on his amazing 1997 Marmon, the second to last one ever built, because after all those years and all those miles, his name is still clean. Honesty and pride \u2013 and guys like Art Bell \u2013 that is what \u201cThe Spirit of the American Trucker\u201d is all about. 10-4!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I typically shoot my pictures of these rare highway ghosts from the cab of my truck as they pass by me on the road, but this time I found one that was stopped \u2013 in fact, he was waiting 13 hours to get loaded!
