I'm a sucker for old rusty stuff. I think it's beautiful. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I stopped and photographed this 1949 Ford panel truck outside of Fairfax on Saturday. The owner, Barbara Conner, was nearby so I struck up a conversation. I commented on the beauty of the truck and asked a few questions. I learned that the city of Fairfax tried to get Barbara, the owner of Simply Iowa antiques, to remove it from her store property as they considered it an abandoned vehicle and an eyesore! You decide - junk or beauty! Enjoy!
