Truck Handle

This is a Fine Art photo of a rusty truck handle. Through some amazing DNA work of swabs taken of human particulates off the old rusty truck handle, the Cleveland Police Department was able to find the owner. This was no easy task since the vintage truck had been sitting in this abandon field for nearly sixty years. The owner of the land was sick of staring at this rusty old bucket of a truck for too long and wanted the owner to move it. So with a little bribe here and there, Clinton Forbes was found living on Catalina Island in California with his son and daughter-in-law. Clinton was shocked when he received papers instructing him to move his vehicle off of Malcolm Clearance Morgan's property in Cleveland, Ohio. Attached to the letter was a rental charge for storing the 1936 Ford in the amount of $72,000. Needless to say Mr. Forbes was shocked, but decided to post the a picture of the truck and the letter with rental bill on Ebay. It made quite a story. The one week auction closed with a final bid of $28,500. Big Joe Neston, a vintage car collector, pulled the car off the field and sent $28,500 to Clinton Forbes of Catalina Island. Needless to say Mr. Morgan's blood pressure hit its all time high that day.
