Most of them you see posted in Washington or Oregon are in the eastern parts east of the Cascade Mountain range or were found there.

Ellensberg is Hay country where the main crop is Timothy hay. A lot of those flatbeds were hay trucks in that area back in the 50's and 60's. The Green one I Have that I posted up above still has an Oregon title from 1984 when it was used on a farm in Oregon. The orange one hauled a big tank with a pto driven pump around the Washington wheat fields for years.

I'd bet that that green 57 was just as the add said, parked one year and never used again as they either didn't need it after that.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
