Mooresville, NC (August 6, 2024) – Amthor International, America’s leading custom tanker truck manufacturer, is thrilled to announce a dynamic new partnership with NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Driver Spencer Boyd. This exciting collaboration celebrates the dedication of Amthor’s nearly 100-year legacy and highlights the hard work of its employees.

With the track and Amthor having storied histories, I’m excited to honor that legacy with a strong performance at the Paperclip.”
Amthor International, a fourth-generation, family-owned enterprise based in Gretna, Virginia, is also gearing up to open a new location in early 2025.
