Description


...discovered this old "White" [brand not color:)] truck high on a mountain...in an old truck yard near former gold, silver and copper mines in Jerome, Arizona. ...one of my wishes for our Arizona visit in April was that I'd find some old rusty cars/trucks to shoot. ...this was the oldest, rustiest truck I found ;-) Bill "Thinking Outside the Box" thumb_2214135.jpg

Wow what a classic. It's at the stage where I'm finding it hard to imagine what it originally looked like. I wonder how rough the ride was without the pneumatics? Great shot.

Someone really drove this into the ground, so to speak. I love the block of wood between the leaf spring and frame, classic.

Well, that old timer has been around the block a time or two. Grand deterioration displayed in this cool photo, Bill. Rustville.

I'm glad you got this, but sorry we couldn't stay longer! That place was a wealth of rusty vehicles. I seem to remember getting some shots there ... you remind me to go back and look again. Thanks, honey! :) :*

OH yes, those tires have seen better days ages ago. I do like such old rusty machines too. Excellent shot, Bill.

And the White company made armoured scout cars and the well known half-track (based on the scout car) for the army during WWII. But this looks a good bit older than those. The suspension reminds me of that of the half-track. Sad, but typical - once it doesn't work, abandon it. Nice mix with the red-brown and the rust blending imperceptibly. Keep up the good work! :-)
