Re: Trucks in the Wild

Saw this 68 a couple of times before today. Not sure what color it started out as but it has a light blue interior. The white may have been brushed on and buffed out. However it happened it certainly is colorful. It didn't have the wheel and tire collection in the box last time I saw it.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

Nice! I grew up in Wyoming and am familiar with chaining up that time of year. Good times, and nice to see a 4x4 getting used.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

Saw this one this morning. Hard to see in photo but the rear wheels looked to be 10" wide. I hope their cowl hood fit better than mine did.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

Spotted this morning at Home Depot. Hard to tell but he's pulling a 16' trailer full of construction supplies. Note the aluminum tape patches on the rocker panels & doors, ford mirror, and the dash board doubles as a filing cabinet. Bonus points for being a Cheyenne.

I have been driving by this truck almost daily for years,it was set out front of a tow company shortly after the animated route 66 movie and it's not uncommon to see people there posing for pictures with it.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

Spotted at 09:00 this morning in Placerville, CA. Pulling into a body and machine shop by the county animal shelter. It looked really clean, but I'm guessing it doesn't run since the guy had to use the winch to get it off.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I still sense what you mean running in the wild are still the work horses that will not be a show queen's.They are the back bone of the work force in the rust belt and back in the tree country and Flat plains.That's is what i got from being in the wild
