TR6 in California

From Michael Moore in Benicia, California. Those cool redwalls say '68 to me but the car is 1970s, I think.

Shoebox Ford. Clayton, New Mexico. (The Hi Lo)


The wind is almost always blowing in the Hi Lo country and especially in April.

1950 Chevrolet 3100, one morning in COS.


Colorado Springs. Don't think I felt a drop of rain the 3/1/2 weeks I was there. A skitter of snow very now and then, and plenty of wind. It's going to be a red flag summer along the Front Range, I fear. Trucks like this have made it through 68 summers and counting. The speedo shop (see below) was just around the corner.

Raw Material. Trementina, New Mexico

These old, unwanted trucks are raw material for the machines the Pacheco Bros. are building way out there in Trementina, New Mexico
