Re: 65 truck at low tide

Wow, haven't seen that one yet in the news. I think the mirrors need to be adjusted before they drive it out tho. Not to mention, Winky, the three eyed, four-legged, glowing salmon, will loose his home.

It's a C50 or larger. Those are full size West Coast Mirrors.

Re: 65 truck at low tide

This picture headlined a story of polution in the duwamish river in 2004. I would think the truck is long gone by now.

Re: 65 truck at low tide

I'll bet it will be pulled out of there, if they can see it and its now news, some one will get paid to remove it.

Re: 65 truck at low tide

it's likely already gone, the story came out in 2004. Anyone is Seattle that can confirm? Would be interesting to know what happened to it

Re: 65 truck at low tide

It came out of the Duwamish, rust is not what concerns anyone who knows about that river.

Looks like the same one at lower tide. The protrusion sticking up in the first picture is visible in the second.
