Found two D200's the other day.

The one with the camper wasn't really that bad, rust was only on the surface as far as I could tell it seems to have been driven somewhat recently. The green one is all but a total loss. There's not a straight panel on it, and it has the worst rust I've ever seen on a southern sweptline. Nice mirrors though.

Late '65 200 CS. It was fenced in, so this is the best shot I could get.

Well I've missed the oppurtunity to photo some really cool trucks I've found. It's hard to catch the ones that are on the road! :lol:
Anyway, saw this red and white trailer for sale when I was on my way up north. On my way back 5 days later it was already sold. I was going to attempt to repair that rear bumper. Even though it is very rough, the whole thing was really cheap.

I also spotted this white one. No use for it though, it is beyond repair. The owner says if he finds the tailgate I can have it though.

Also found this big boy (68 D500) tucked behind an old barn. When I stopped to check it out, I was greeted by a "top heavy" gal that took me by suprise. :joker Usually some old farmer comes out the door.

It's kind of obvious the fate of this 71 D200. :pale :banghead

No pic doing 80 the opposite direction, but thought I would share that I saw a primer grey 68 flat towing a 68 Dart on I-64 yesterday. Also worth mentioning is the fact that I've spotted 3 really cool sweptys on the road. It seems pretty cool to actually find them on the road.

Found this A100 for sale at a small used car lot about an hour from me. Pretty solid little truck. The slant runs like a top of course. Guy said it was pulled from a 15 year barn nap.

Also found this 65 crew cab uteline recently! Guy says he is the 2nd owner (since 1970), and claims "it has over 1 million orignal miles on the big block". Even though it's a polly. :joker He also mentioned the wood bumper was for pushing race cars back in the day. It was fun having my kiddo's with me on this find. They enjoyed it too.

I recently found this 70 Power Wagon for the third time. Saw it the 1st time a few years back and been wondering where it was ever since. Talked to the youngman for a bit too. Its his daily. Pretty sharp truck.

Tell City, IN. About an hour east of me. They were asking 6k. We got a job going there right now, so I'll pass by it a bunch more still.

Came across these sweptlines on a recent roadtrip. More pic's of same trucks if anyone wants to see them.
This beast is for sale asking price is $4,900 kinda steep in my opinion, the fellow says it runs. Phone (780) 638-3251

The body is decent Seff, Im sizing it up to see if I can use the frame on my 63 W300 project :study the frame I have in the 63 now has been stretched and not braced up like it should have been.....the old rancher who worked it for 47 years put a sag and a sway in one rail haulin weights it was'nt meant too. Im thinking this frame might be the best and cheapest option. Another local wants a good set of W300 fenders for his 70 W300, you could say this one is gonna live on as a donor truck Seff

I found another crew in Spencer, IN today. 68 power wagon with NO RUST! :clap The mechanic said a lady just brought it from Mexico and was paying him $1,000 + to install new clutch, lights etc. so she could drive it on the farm. :thinking
