I found a truck in need

[old man dave]

I saw this truck sitting behind a house in an old neighbor hood in Atlanta. The old couple that lived there have died and the son has a house a few miles away. I have not been able to make contact but I am trying. Also found some old toys laying in the pile behind the garage.

Buy it if you can.It would be shame to have it hauled off for scrap.
We lose too many that way.

It's cool that it is former Military too!

Looks like a couple keepers!!!!

I really like the part about being military, just wish I could get the guy to call me back so I would at least know his plans. This would not be something I would spend time looking for but when you see a truck like that you gotta stop and ask.

Funny....was thinking the same thing!!!

Oh boy.....

 

[old man dave]

It also has this on the passenger side where the visor should be. This truck also has a door lock on the passenger door but not on the driver door. Must be something they did for military use.

That thing is sweet. Hope you get in touch with the owner.

i agree with you Rex too many people scrap antiques like this it's a real shame people don't realize the value of these classics

I wasn't trespassing the truck invited me.

Me too. I have tried to sound as interested as possible with out going overboard and making the owner think he has a gold mine. I actually left a note in his door Monday but still no reply.[S

Yeah. Good inscription for a tombstone.

They all have the lock only on the passenger door...Back then, people parked at the curb, slid over to the passenger side and got out....Watch the old movies and you will see them doing that.

I almost cried

It used to be a regulation to exit a vehicle on the pasenger side so you would lock the driver's door with the handle on the inside then use a key on the passenger door
