Disorderly Conduct, a 1999 Peterbilt 379 and former Pride & Polish National Champ, won Best of Show in the Limited-Mileage Bobtail category at the year’s first Overdrive’s Pride & Polish show, held this weekend at the 75 Chrome Shop in Wildwood, Fla.
The truck is now owned by longtime Pride & Polish competitor Todd Roccapriore, who also brought his award-winning Widow Maker to the annual Florida event. Roccapriore’s Disorderly Conduct also won the People’s Choice award.
In addition to Roccapriore’s ’99 Pete, three others won Best of Show honors, qualifying all for the 2015 Pride & Polish National Championship, the finale for which will be held at the Great American Trucking Show in Dallas in August.
Wisconsin-based owner-operator Kenneth Fischer won Best of Show in Working Bobtail category with his 1997 Peterbilt 379. Fischer already qualified to compete in this year’s Pride & Polish National Championship by winning Best of Show at the Performance Diesel Inc. Pride & Polish show held in St. George, Utah, last November. He and the truck also competed in the 2014 Pride & Polish National Championship, having won Best of Show at last year’s June-held River States Customz Pride & Polish to qualify.
In the Working Combo category, Okeechobee, Fla.-based operator Michael LeCrenier won Best of Show with his 2014 Green Kenworth T880 and 2008 Polar Tanker.
