Looks like the rear shocks weren't much better than the front ones. :B
Just this side of that fence is where my truck sat for the last 20 years.
I wish I'd taken my camera with me the day I bought it. :(
This fire fighting apparatus had been in the back of the truck for over 25 years. The owner and his partner owned a small logging business up on the mountain not from where I live.
When they closed up shop they asked my friend if he could keep the truck at his pace for them, that was 2002 and my friend never heard from him again. They probably figured that was easier than taking to the wrecking yard.
It took me 3 months to get a clear title for it. I've only had it licensed for about a week now. I still have tons to do but at least now I can drive it into town. :)
