Posted by Mutt 7/18/2005 12:33 AM | remove   Ever see the movie "The Gods Must Be Crazy" Similar thing happened there, an African Village found a Coke bottle. Posted by greywolf45 7/31/2005 8:42 AM | remove   I don't know what happened to the trucks after these dump beds were removed. Posted by greywolf45 7/31/2005 8:44 AM | remove   Kind of like a bone yard for old mining equipment Posted by BigWangGlick 9/9/2005 7:29 PM | remove   Can't you see cavemen in 500 years into the nuclear post-apocalypse digging these up and believing they're the shells of giant beetles? Posted by greywolf45 9/16/2005 5:24 AM | remove   Giant beetles, or giant turtle shells. Posted by greywolf45 9/16/2005 5:25 AM | remove   Wished i knew where the rest of the trucks were. Posted by davek 5/26/2006 2:05 AM | remove   The bed with the guy waving in it looks like it's bent from being seriously overloaded, but the rest don't. Funny. Posted by greywolf45 5/28/2006 12:41 PM | remove   I know, but some of these trucks came from the Bisbee mine when it closed. they were in sad shape Posted by az_catskinner 8/8/2006 8:20 PM | remove   That curved bed is a Duratray - the rest are Cat and Komatsu factory beds. All have since been scrapped. Posted by az_catskinner 8/8/2006 8:23 PM | remove   Also, most of the trucks these came off of are either still here, or shipped to Chino (NM). These are all wearouts. Posted by greywolf45 8/10/2006 9:43 AM | remove   Do you work at the mine? Posted by az_catskinner 8/11/2006 3:33 AM | remove   Sure do - making the big bucks (kindof!) Posted by Blackbird 5/12/2007 3:09 PM | remove   Yeah' once the beds wear out the remove them, the truck is still good, it would just need a new bed. Posted by greywolf45 6/1/2007 5:29 AM | remove   I used to drive past this old storage area, wgich was on an old waste rock dump. If you'd like to add a comment, please login or register.
