I was digging around in that box full of old snapshot pictures, looking for some things for a story I want to do over at Left Edge North, when I ran across these. Some of the cars and trucks I have owned over the years. In no particular order:WHAT A LONG STRANGE TRIP IT'S BEEN...

You sure as hell have spread it around when it comes to vehicles Mr. N.

I bet a guy like YOU has had a few too, eh?
Yea, I have always been a shade-tree mechanic and a car lover. I wonder if I could pick my fave?

I can't even begin to remember them all. The most unique one in your pictures is the IH cab over. Early 60's maybe. There are some interesting ones for sure.

Actually, it's an old 3/4 ton long box forward control Willys that had a GMC 6 cylinder put into it. They made em in a 1/2 ton short too. THAT is one I wish I had back.

The old 57 Ford flatbed with the load of hay was a dandy too...292 V-8, 4 speed, 3 speed brownie trans. I had put overhead oilers on it and a tack and whatnot...had that one for a loooong time...memories, man, memories! That particular trip, me and a buddy were gonna make our fortune hauling alfalfa hay to the horsie set from Easto of the mountains to "Fancy-ville" outside Seattle...fukken state patrol didn't like my rig!
