These old trucks are sitting on a lot in the little town of Sprague, WA. If only they could tell there stories...

















Not a truck but cute anyway! Anyone know what make and year this is?

Love them all. I love pictures of old cars, old houses, old barns and old people. Could it be because I am getting into that category too..........

Gotta love the old American made products. Too bad they don't make them like that any more. Vehicles sure would last longer.

Looks like it was raining...oh thats right you're in WA. I really like the Dodge Ram hood ornament and the last one of the old car. If you ever go back to this place, I certainly would, shoot the car at a bit of an angle so we see the front say at a 3/4 view to give some depth. Play with the last shot some, I think you have something there.

The car looks to be a 1925 to '27 Model T Ford

It was actually snowing lightly...it only rains on the west side of the state. I am on the far East, not far from the Idaho border. The old car...I took it from the car window because there is a barbed wire fence protecting it and it was cold and we were cold from staying outside so long shooting the trucks. I removed the fence lines in the photo through PS. I am somewhat surprised that some of the hood ornaments are still mounted on those old fellows!

it is sad to see pieces of american automotive history slowly decaying to oblivion. they ought to be restored to life.

I agree! I felt so badly for these old trucks. But it takes a special person who has the time, money and know how to tackle one of these trucks as a project.
