If you look closely you can see the tree trunk under the bed and growing through it!

Maybe old age on my side but seeing such an image of manmade objects slowly decaying makes me sad, always wondering what stories they could tell!
Thanks for sharing.
Best.

Thanks, Mike, its pretty common place to see old trucks sitting out on the back acreage with a few parts removed, farmers get a lot out their farm equipment. This old one ton was missing the heads, someone probably salvaged the heads for another truck. I has been there since probably the early 80s. Thanks for viewing, My Friend!

Thanks, it probably was a "parts donor" farmers used to do that a lot. Thanks for viewing.
