Art & Inspiration Sitting and Rotting.............picture thread

Eastern Colorado. Any one know what the second truck is?

 

I scrapped out an old Barracuda and gave the back glass to a local wrecking yard. A good two decades later, I found another nice Barracuda that had a broken rear window and bought back my old window. 35 bucks for storing the glass for that long- good deal.

Any one know what the second truck is?


I am thinking 1947 Federal Model 16M

 

That looks too good to have been sitting very long. Even the tires look good.

 

What are his prices like? I think I’m in lust.

It's actually the A55s big brother,an A90 six. But same bodystyle.

 

Wish I were closer- that Graham Brothers would be coming home with me

 

And I could use that bar-b-que grille!

 

Hard to tell without a grill, a lot of truck makers back then used the same cab.

 

It's been on Craigslist for crazy money....

 

Yep.....not a fast inventory move......cool you like the A bodies .

 

Flynn's Wrecking Yard, Cooma. Australia.
Apparently the biggest in the southern hemisphere. >4000 vehicles
Old mate charges you $10 just to take a look around.
He thinks he's sitting on a fortune in old tin, problem is some stupid prick has removed the wheels of nearly every car and sat them in the dirt on their guts, so now they're all f**cked.
Not only that but most that still have the engine have had the head removed, you'll find it in the boot (trunk).
And if you want a decent part he insists you have to buy the whole car.
Still, good for taking photos, if you can avoid the brown snakes.
Can't seem to upload the really interesting photos...

 

I agree with you bowlingball, but i gotta say. Since the early sixties Toyota did more to build this country than any other vehicle manufacturer, dare i say more than Holden even.

More likely just to get them out of sight, I'd think.

 

No, it's a little ways from Wichita KS, all going to be auctioned off.

Boy that 46-48 Plymouth looks sweet peeking out the doors wearing that 49 Plymouth Bumper!
