On a second ride thru CO, we with another couple rode over 10,000 foot mark NUMEROUS times, as we got close I KNEW we were close as would slightly nauseate then the headache would begin to throb and TADA the sign would pop up as to the pass we were crossing. Not like I was a little dehydrated or something(was making routine Barely soda stops) or not well acclimated or something, was WISHING for a garage or weld shop to grab a little O2 snort but never found one!!
Could be U cab but typical for a DM fiberglass nose around here, right mirror was on four foot sideways stilts and shook like a dog dropping peach pits. The DMM series at the quarries were Iron fronts, U series mostly city day cab tractors.

Saw this today while herding one of our Mack's about the campus in the Boston neighborhood. There is another one like it in the same yard... It's like one hand missed Salt Lake and just kept steamin' east! Kind of sad in a way considering how big and successful that outfit was. IMG_0813.jpg

No for sale sign, but I could inquire if you are serious. Don't know anything about the owner, just saw it when out touring junk shops with my wife.

Looks like it says Fish and Wildlife in the center of the door.
