    What graveyard did they rob to find those things.
    There's more cabovers in that picture then I seen
    On the road in 10 years.

    By the way what's the price on one of those trucks.
     
    Oldironfan Thanks this.

    That is all their junk. Been filling that lot for years.
    Look at the pictures of the shop equipment, don't think they ever thru anything away.
    Lot is just south of the OKC Petro, you can drive buy in your truck.

    I'll be off during the auction. Wondering if it's worth
    The 5 hour drive from where I live in Texas.
    Are those trucks even serviceable for anything.
    Logging,rail yard,containers.
    Do you have to have cash on hand at one of
    these auctions.
     
    Oldironfan Thanks this.

    Love going to auctions like that. Looks like some of those cabovers started life as Werner trucks. Probably a good thing it's not closer to me or I may be bringing home another project that I don't have time for.

    Looks like a huge pile of junk. Probably be better off scraping them.

    I've only ridden in one YEARS ago with my dad. I thought it was so cool. I'm guessing they are none too quiet going down the road as you're on top of the engine. Wouldn't this create a cab hotter than hell in the summer?

    "All units are currently non-runners (some were running when parked over the past 10 years)"

    173 pics of junk. Somebody Cleary has hording issues. Cant believe all that is sitting and has been sitting for so long
