Recently, I discovered a new dump, so today I decided to go test it out and see what I could find. Sadly the cold weather still leaves the ground frozen rock hard. However, I managed to pry up a few parts and dig around, and thats when out popped this beauty!
A 1940's Wyandotte stake truck! As a vintage toy collector, this really got me excited! Sadly, it is bent up, but hopefully I'll be able to bend the parts back and get it "rust-stored". It would make one awesome display piece.

Thanks guys! It sure is a unique find. Once the warm weather comes around, I'll blast it with electrolysis, and see how it goes from there.
