Is the truck pulling the boat in? Hard to tell.

Picture was taken with a cell phone camera. Sorry about the quality but will get better shots. The J is actually pushing a float plane into the ocean before the pilot fires it up to leave. They also use it to bring the planes back ashore. You should be able to enlarge the second picture to see more clearly. They cut the frame just behind the cab and are using the front axle for locomotion.

They probably had the whole truck at one time, but the rear end must've rusted away so they chopped it off! LOL!

Believe they are insurance write offs. They have 2 Olds Tornadoes and a 2002 Chevy 4x4 all with the rears cut off them.Funny looking but a blast to drive I bet.
