Default Saskatchewan

That is outstanding habitat! I have chased mule deer south the of the South Saskatchewan River while looking for a good whitetail. Non Saskatchewan residents are prohibited from shooting mulies. But my BiL's SiL shot a mulie buck near there that got into the record book. I've also chased pronghorns on open range like that except further south.

(Back to old trucks) For a field find, that one is in really good shape. Whoever goes to recover it has to be polite and respectful to the landowner. He is probably reluctant to sell anything, for fear of being taken advantage of. He'd sooner send it to the scrap truckers than sell it to you. But, if you are honest with him, you might be surprised.

And it's only about 50 miles from me!!! Guess what I'll be doing tomorrow!
I've been down that road before but never saw it.
Model 84-20 is a C8.

Good luck with finding it. Dennis thinks it's a 12 cab. I know nothing about them.

It's a late 1940 11 Cab C8 and likely a radio truck. The box is off a civvy pickup. I know the area and I'll likely be able to drive right to the spot. I looked on Google Earth and from your directions it looks like it might be on Hutterite land.
