I was passing through Norwood, Colorado for work and saw some old iron. This pack rat/junk man/clepto maniac has a personal junkyard of 1000s YES 1000s of hulks of junk cars (Not alot of any value, lots of cars from the 80s and early 90s) They were stacked 6-7 high for 10+acres.

Well I spotted this FWD amongst everything else. While taking pictures, I got invited to see it closer and was offered to buy it for $2500. I think not. He also had a early 40s Ford pickup marmon 4x4 conversion, a few 5 ton 6x6s a few Dodge powerwagons (one in really good shape) and about 20 flatfender jeeps.

FWD is a 1948, Continental gas, blower motor "somewhere" around the yard Did have the drive shaft and "supposedly" had everything to mount the blower "somewhere" in the weeds.

Man, I wish i were closer, but would cost me prolly double the 2500 to go out and pick something like that up and bring it home :mad:

That old Kenworth looks in pretty good shape! I love old iron, I'd go nuts in that place!
