Pierce and Gayle,

Sorry to read of Fawkes injury. It is amazing how attached
we can become to our pets. They are always there for us,
ready to play and lift our spirits on our down days and there
to share our up days. We have to be there to take care of them
when they can't.

I was planning to be there tomorrow. But something came up and mr doctor advises against being in the middle of nowhere away from emergency medical services until j get this corrected. Next year for sure.

Sorry you have to cancel, Tom.

We are departing Piccacho, AZ this morning - will arrive Q this afternoon, sometime...

@Lmadden: Dry wood is always in demand at Q - if you don't use it all, you could sell it to a SOB owner.

Having to make a tough choice. Go to the lemon gathering on the 25th. or stay and get a free truck if I can move it. Really don't need more projects but this one is calling me. Pics below. It is an old International delivery truck of unknown year at this time. Anybody got a guess?

Just might have to go get that old truck if in your shoes . I really like those old trucks and there is only so many left in this world . Have no idea of the year , but look at what looks like wooden spokes . Late twenties or early thirties maybe ? Let us know how this turns out . My interest is stirred up . Brad Metzger

No prob. The truck wins out. Easy lift. 18 1/2 ton crane and slings.

Rip the shed off and lift it out ! ! ! -OR- clean a way out and try to air

the tires or get dollies, roll out, load and and run for sunny California !

Nice find, congrats,

I'm in sunny California and it is only 2 miles away. Will use my Jeep to pull it out where a flatbed can load it. The reason it interferes with Quartzite, it is going to rain here until Tue. and there is mud to deal with. No chance for air in the tires sitting about 30 years.

Think the one your after might be a bit older. Look where the headlights are mounted and the shape of the doors.

That was the only year I could find with the curved cab window. You are right, back to the drawing board. The image from stump appears right on.
