Re: Windshield Wednesday
There's something special bout that place. Two great rivers coming together to cut through the Blue Ridges. The picture came out good considering I was driving on a bridge in a K2500.
This windshield picture moves

Re: Windshield Wednesday
Luckily all the snow is gone now. The old orange truck puts in work all year though.

Had ice inside and out. You can see the Monte and the shop across the road, barely.

Re: Windshield Wednesday
Here's my '68 C/10 Stepside one day when Hell Froze over.
And more recently under its carport. Nite shot.

Re: Windshield Wednesday
Looks like Santa Susana Pass Road, to me. If it is, that was one slow ride with a truck on a flat bed!

Re: Windshield Wednesday
No it is not PCH. Even though BIL lives off of that rarely go there as I dislike the beach. My nephew is 10 and I have seen him 10 times, the family is not very social. A view of an old road in Moorpark (where body shop is) that has access to the 118.

Re: Windshield Wednesday
I used to live in LA 50 years ago. Bought my Orange Stepside in Pasadena. I get back occasionally, but the geography always seems turned around for a few days until I get my bearings.

Re: Windshield Wednesday
Got in my truck tonight and found a big crack in the windshield right where the mirror is mounted. Very upset. It has the original windshield, it’s kinda cloudy at the bottom, and has what looks like a gun shot in it. It really fit in well with the rest of the truck.
