Merle Coggins Posted October 22, 2007 Report Posted October 22, 2007 A week or so ago I posted about a '47 Dodge truck that my Grandfather had on the farm. Well my Father found this picture of it and sent it to me. It's not exactly the center of attention in this photo, but there it is none the less. Apparently they had built taller sides for the bed for hauling cattle. It looks like it was in transition at the time this photo was taken. From information on the back of the picture, the car in the foreground is my Uncle's "new" '49 Plymouth and because the new silo is up it is assumed that the picture was taken after 1952. This is the farm that I grew up on and it is interesting seeing the barn from that time. There are a few things in that photo that are different now. Quote
Reg Evans Posted October 23, 2007 Report Posted October 23, 2007 Great photo and story Merle. Is the farm still in the family? Quote
Merle Coggins Posted October 23, 2007 Author Report Posted October 23, 2007 My cousin and her husband have it now. I'm not sure if they are still milking cows anymore, but they have the farm. Merle Quote
