Jerk Dumptruck- Here is one of four pictures of another very unique antique dumptruck from the past. The owner said to dump the box you would release a lever and then back up and slam on the brakes and the jerk was what made the box dump. He said it was built off center so it would easily dump.
This is another machine that would be great fun to build into a cool model. I really enjoy these rare trucks and heavy equipment machines from the past.
The picture below this one shows me in the drivers seat. Also there are more pics of it in the ( trucks section ).
Camping trip is winding down- Well, it’s another sunny day on the Canadian / U.S. border.
We saw lots of boats go through yesterday and one unusual one with a load that we never saw before and we took some video of it. We will post that clip later this week.
GLAD TO BE BACK IN THIS COUNTRY- It’s always fun spending the time in other countries , but it gets confusing driving on the opposite side of the road when you go abroad. People are always honking at me forcing me back to the right side of the road, LOL !!
Have a nice Memorial Day and say a little prayer for Peace on Earth .
