Here's one I had for my Desktop for a long time. It's a '47 truck that was on eBay and in northern NM. Pretty artistic, I think, although I'm sure that was not the seller's intent... Patina, baby!

Never see old trucks rusting out in pastures out in MA... but just did a cross country road trip with a buddy a month back, and I can't tell you how many times we would quick yell and point driving down the road. They are definitely pretty in a weird way... although always makes me wonder why no one wanted to keep the truck in decent shape, or sell/give them to someone that would. Saw a Hudson truck that nearly brought me to tears...

Great link... great pictures...

Beautiful and sad.
People probably left them in the fields like this because they were beyond their useful life, but they didn't have the heart to send them off to the crusher.

That's how I got my truck, my wife's grandpa always wanted to restore it. Now it's up to me...too bad I couldn't get it done before he passed...
