    A bad question for all:

    start to build my new home and have an idea for my garden.

    a unrestorable truck.:rolleyes:

    if anyone hear from an truck there is too bad for an restoratione please give me the information. I'm looking for an truck as an part of my garden. the last grave but in honor all the time. Think it's better then the metall press in a yunkyard

    Martinus ;

    I've seen some photos of wonderful old Mercedes trucks rusting to bits in Europe , can't you find one down a hill or behind a barn there ? .

    Some years ago I had a 920's Nash geabox on my porch , I found it in rural Montanna with a tree growing out of it........

    I thought it looked nice , rusted solid and with the pedals still attached ~ few others did tho' .

    Truck art in the garden is a creativ thought !

    We love it , helping you finding a truck is not to difficult here but what kinda truck do you have in mind and do you have any thoughts about transport from Norway to Germany wich is allmost 3000 km both ways.

    Achs do lieber mensch :) Martinius.

    kind of truck

    not important, i think i take a look and love it or not. Transportation is not problem. i would like to meet you and could come with a trailer to you. vacation was an idea and i don't have forgot it. :D

    important is the price and lot of chrome parts like new:eek:
    but only a truck which can goes only to the yunkyard. if the condition ist good i know i restore the truck

    my idea

    Nate: my idea is the waterfall front from a truck with the real function of water fall throught the grille. I would like to see the front not the back.

    Hope Martinius can help me

    I always wanted a beat down "T" truck and a pond. Pull the truck slightly into the pond and hook up a fountain through the radiator cap.
