Old Trucks Stopped Cold in an Attempt to Flee Junk Yard

Four antique trucks were stopped cold in a snow bank in northern Idaho this past weekend. Bob Mee of Hank’s Junk & Salvage said that the four trucks were seen sneaking out Saturday night after the owners had decided that all vehicles manufactured before 1986 were going to be crushed and sold for scrap. “I guess those old clunkers were trying to make a break for it” said Wally Pauley, the crusher operator. “It’s a damn shame that the owners have made this decision but it our economy I guess everyone is struggling to get by, after all this will guarantee my salary for years to come.” As it turned out the ‘Fleeing Four” as they’ve come to be known as are going to be restored back to their original condition and put on display at the salvage yard’s entrance way. Bob Mee was also quoted as saying “We’ve decided that these four classics deserve a second chance but the next time a vehicle tries to escape we’ll be dealing out the maximum penalty”
