    we started to crush out some of the older big trucks we have laying around, started with this 74 International 4070b Cabover.....
    buried up to the hub in dirt, been sitting since the late 70's or early 80's.

    its a bit gloomy I guess you might say with all the guys stuff left in it from when he left the truck 20-30 years ago, found his slippers, a change of clothes, a couple cans of that lemonade stuff, and his coffee cup was securly fastened to the dash when we started.

    Cool photo journal. Does everything get sold for scrap eventually?

    this is true! no matter what this metal becomes later on, it will never match its former glory. sadly she's a bit past repair.
