    It's an old car that's been sitting in the field for awhile.

    If it's a foreign car, it could be like looking for a brass needle in a large hay stack.

    Not collecting anymore just grabing a few pictures to share.

    Now that the foliage has fallen from the trees, found an old pick up truck. Have to remeber to always bring a camera along on my road trips.

    Not much left of the truck, it's upside down has external potted headlights the lens's missing some animal built a nest in one, the windsheild missing but the frame is hinged to open outwards letting air flow into the cab.

    To many missing parts to identify the truck, next time will take some pictures maybe some of you are able to put a manufactures name to it.
