Re: Abandoned, neglected square body trucks rotting away...

Well...

Now that I've gone through this entire thread, I need to schedule a session with my therapist so that I can get out of this depression.

So sad! LOL

Actually, all kidding aside, it is a shame that we've become such a "throw-away" society.

Especially sad when many of the trucks in this thread look like they could live again in one form or another.

Re: Abandoned, neglected square body trucks rotting away...

I love this thread. It kind of makes you sad that so many end up like this, but considering how many of these trucks they made it's inevitable. Where do you find all these trucks and/or photos anyway?

Glad you enjoy these type of pics too.

Agreed, large production numbers are certainly a contributing factor. I also think a lot of them lived a hard life; although, I have also stumbled on a surprisingly large amount of similar pics of Corvettes.

I started a similar thread for Jeeps over 8 years ago. It currently has over 6,500 pics and is still active. There are a lot of neat pics in this thread:

http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f59/a...g-away-907875/

Most of the pics have been found on a variety of online sites, forums, etc.; although, I have snapped some of the pics in my travels too. Hopefully these pics help motivate some to be saved and/or rescued.
