I was in Argentina last week and stumbled upon a pile of old trucks and tractors

Wait, a Leyland truck in Argentina? So awesome. I wonder why they stopped importing them!

Here's a diesel volvo, for your Jalop needs:

This engine was in better shape than its bay, some hoses are actually new. So, someone started restoring it and never went back.

Whatever this was, it had an awesome cooling system.

I almost did. It was in the back of a Zoo. My wife was petting rabbits and llamas, and I spent almost an hour investigating. Only to later see I took too few pictures, there was so much awesome stuff I didn't take pictures of.

If I could, I'd spend much more time checking everything out. There was even a 1912 100hp steam tractor. HUGE. I'll ask my wife, I know she took some pictures of it.

I can't believe I didn't even take pictures of the military trucks they had.

The military stuff is actually in a closed part, and was part of the zoo. I could swear I took pictures over the fence, but I can't find any.

I asked if I could go in and they said it'd only open at 1PM, and we had to be back in the cruise ship at 2, it was 50 miles away from the docks, so we didn't go.

It was more of a "Ha, glad you saw it".

Also, if you enlarge the first picture you can see the classic Ford V8 logo on the fender.
