Probably still sitting right there.

Doesn't look like it moves very much. LOL

Hopefully some kind person has now given it a home and restored it :)

He was a sturdy, reliable truck once. I learned to drive a couple of years early with one of these Chevys during summers on my uncle's ranch back in the 50's.

They just don't make 'em like they used to!

Love it. The truck itself is so interesting with the color and shape and just the way they were built back then. The rust adds a lot of character to it. It makes you imagine all this truck has been through.

terry would want it if he saw it. He'd tell me to look at that!! as he drove too fast for me to whip my head around to see what he saw.

Someone is probably restoring it. You never know. ;-)

Kodak said...

I bet it's really rusted by now. Nice find.

Ruth Hiebert said...

It looks like it has a few years and a few miles behind it.

Hill Top Post said...

There's no telling for these oldies but goodies are in high demand these days!

That's been around a while! Maybe someone restored it.

It's showing its age even more than Andy and I are!

harry said...

well, there are two possibilities: still in Illinois or rusted into a pile of iron oxide and washed into the rivers

interesting old truck
