Enjoying Your Old Ford Truck

Post by 68 Ford Stepside »

When the wife & I climb into the old flareside on a Saturday morning, the camera is with us. We like to record our ride with photos of abandoned roads, old petrol stations, old cars & trucks. It makes for an enjoyable trip & a record of our outings. Have A Great Ford Day !

A shot with your truck in front of that building, or down the bridge would have been really cool! Your photos are going to make me work harder on my truck in the AM!

Very nice pictures! Love your truck.

That old Texaco station is cool. You dont find anything like that out in my next of the woods.

Good morning 68 Ford Stepside,

Thanks so much for these photos; I'm really enjoying them! My favorite is this one, because of the incredible stillness it portrays. I can almost smell the air.

Thank you again,
Robroy
