The acting in that series was phenomenal -- I think the guy who played "Gus Fring" did a particularly good job with his role.....
I couldn't find any bad acting in that series...now I see why it won so many awards!

yup
I see Trinity Bay but New Harbour is not on the map...I'll google it later. Seems like you're a good bit away from me. I'm down here where the Acadians landed 250 yrs ago in French Louisiana.

If the rest of the truck is good, why not get another frame and swap it out.

Try finding a good frame for one, plus its a damn lot of work. Looking good for getting an 03 I can make just like her though. Posted a pic a while back of one just like that 03

If the map shows a large area, could only have certain towns showing. There is a lot of small little towns very close together here. Yup a good distance away

Close to 80 down here...going to the oldest daughters house for 2pm to bring back the 7yr old grandson who spent the night with us. I may just go relax around their pool and soak up some sun before another cold front hits us tonight. Crazy weather down here at this time of the year.

As kids we used to love to hike into these places and explore the old vehicles! I remember the one nearest my home had an old '50's-era Packard, a '59 Chevy 4-door, a '59 Ford Galaxie, one of those early-'60's era Ford Econoline pickups, a '64 Ford station wagon that was turned upside down, plus several others that I can't exactly recall what they were.

The last time I was back home I even went back and checked on this area to see if the cars were still there. Silly me -- at the top of the ravine was a McMansion that someone had built on the edge of a new golf course development! Made me kind of sad to see what had happened to my old stomping grounds......
