The Ford Barn

While hiking around the GSMNP, I popped out on a dirt road with a country store. In front was this sad pickup. It's seen better days.....

While vacationing near this area in Gatlinberg in 1990 I purchased an entire barn full of T And A nos parts still in the original packages. Wayne

The back of the cab looks pretty clean. So often battered, at least mine was.

In any case, thanks for helping us Westerners out (assuming that IS the right answer).

Hey Chuck, I've met those types of owners. I believe they leave the vehicle out there just for the purpose of attracting attention and it feeds their ego to have someone ask them about it. Unfortunately it will sit there and rot away to nothing.
