www.aghistory.org/Highly recommended for anyone with in driving distance to visit this museum. Originally built as a Agricultural mueum, it now encompases a huge indoor collection of crawler tractors & historical farm equipment from horse drawn to diesel. a second bulding was added & it is full of trucks, from the teens to post modern.

I will openly admit, the only reason i was able to visit these museum's was i was working on site November of 2008 in Rio Vista California. 3 Sundays in a row the site was shut down, so a 1 hour drive & days well spent.

the ag side is well laid out with plenty of space to get around each piece & take photos & dimensions. the truck side, not to much.

So here is a link to a photo album of mine. Keep in mind the camera was failing, and many of the photos are dark. I have a new set to go up, retouched & some re-shoots from other visits. You will find a 1940's Peterbilt log truck with a close up of the stinger. these trucks were parked with in a foot of each other. This is the truck side: picasaweb.google.com/104314017000259065363/HaysAntiqueTruckMuseum?authkey=Gv1sRgCPul34uF7IP5fg#I still need to put up an album for the tractor side. Ap40

Rick,
I think maybe your link might be broken, or unidintifiable by the program. Try reposting the photo link.
