The Coolest Forklift Truck

Image
Its a good thing that this video is worth the effort because the upload failed TWICE. This unique machine needed a video to fully comprehend what it is that you are looking at. I don't usually do videos for old iron, but this is a special case. This is late April in the BC interior, shorts and T-shirt weather, while it rained in Vancouver. Also..I was wondering after the fact ...does this thing have one forward gear and four reverse...or did the builders do something about that? ( when it is going forward in forklift mode ) A second pick-up/forklift was found in Aug/2012 on Vancouver Island. The link to photos is here..   http://adventuresinmikeslife.blogspot.ca/2012/08/frankie-forklift-truck.html

Road Trip ....Rusty Metal, Shiny Chrome

Image
Went on a road trip to look for rust and peeling paint. I found so much great looking derelict iron,  that I had to get choosy. I had to decide when to stop and when to go. I was forced to make lists A this trip list And a next trip list Great looking oldies in a fantastic setting Interior BC sun and heat While it rained in Vancouver Windows down to get the breeze Instead of windows up And wipers wiping. This first set is in Olalla, on highway 3A. Stan Bobowski owns them. Stan would like you all to know that he is interested in selling all the iron in these pics....for the right price of course. Contact Stan directly ...at the office of CherryWood Estates 250 492 5812 or residence 250 499 5432 Stan has a wealth of information on motor home traveling in the southern States...and long distance riding on his full dress Harley.
