Default My CMP finally got moved!

A few photos of todays adventure. What should have taken 2 hours took just under 5...
First, the tow truck got stuck;


Here is the second truck to tow out the first one;


Here the flat deck truck is passing my CMP oh so slowly;


And the ditch left behind by the unstuck tow truck;


And finally my truck was out of the ruts it's been in for the past 4 years and waiting patiently to be loaded onto the flat deck;


Loading her up;


And she's finally on her way to her new home;


I tarped her up for winter and will probably have to wait until springtime to start working on her but it was worth the wait.
Whew, what a day!
Pedro

Default Wire 5?

It looks like a wire 5 truck by the shape of and location of the toolbox. Do you know the build date? June /July 44 or?

That looks to be a great truck and some very very sticky mud.
