LOL... looks like a death trap. V

Hard to believe that this once was a truck...definitely a bit of work there.... Super quality of light and a great comp. V

Great find and capture !V

I think it's beyond repair but you have a great image of it....V

Stunning how trucks and car can change as soon as they are not used anymore. I guess this one is not used for a long time but the transformation is amazing ! V.

I don’t think this will replace the Nikonmobile any time soon. Terrific shot.

Probably needs a few tweaks to make it roadworthy. Super shot, very attractive. V

A candidate for resurrection rather than restoration.
Dennis Hoyne20-Feb-2018 03:32
I'll have to agree with Dan. A cool shot! V

Goldfield seems a goldmine for photography. :-)

Great capture of this truck that needs a little bit of work. V

Great old machinery!! Excellent details and textures! V
Helen Betts20-Feb-2018 00:30
I'd have to agree with Dan ;-), but a great find and capture of it. I like those shadows, too.

Looks pretty old, restoration would be a challenge, however your image is tops.
janescottcumming19-Feb-2018 22:53
Not much left there!
Neil Marcus19-Feb-2018 22:14
A little polish and it will b... I wonder how old that is.
Lamar Nix19-Feb-2018 21:44
Great image! Amazing how long machines last out in the dry AZ sun! V

Does not get more rustic and rusted than this. I like the shadows.

great find and nice capture.V.

A fine line between restoration and salvage, and this one might have crossed it. But it definitely makes for an interesting subject to shoot if not to drive.

Put a suicide knob on one of the steering wheel spokes and you're good to go. However this could be a challenge for people who can't drive stick. I like the mahogany dash.

Great find.

Yes, it needs some! :)
Allan Jay19-Feb-2018 19:13
Great eye!
Wonderful crop, David

This truck definitely needs a little loving'! And maybe an engine to go with it? But the ruined state of it is so interesting and you photographed it very well.
Jim Coffman19-Feb-2018 18:43
It needs some serious restoration! Love this image!
Dan Greenberg19-Feb-2018 18:32
I like this a lot! I wish I thought of it while we were there. I especially like the patterns caused by the hood louvers. Well framed. ~BV~
