Street Scene Cover Truck!

All you NSRA members check out the manure spreader on the cover of Street Scene Magazine. Haven't read it yet, but wondering if the owner is a member of our forum? Anyone recognize the truck?

Here's the skinny on the manure spreader. It's a 52 F-1 owned by Chris Ellis of South Hill, Virginia, for 12 years. It's purple with yellow and orange flames, chromed grille bars, and a chopped top. It's a beautiful truck....for a manure spreader that is...

Still better looking than a monkey face though...
