Just by chance...

as I was going to an accessory shop I spied what looked like a familiar truck. It wasn't two-tone anymore, but I knew it was my old truck. I haven't seen it around for at least 10 years. The original Ramcharger style buckets were long gone and the console/cooler looked like it had seen better days, and the colour was a shade or two darker. But it was good to see that it is still alive and not sitting in a scrap yard or wrecked. I think the 400 was swapped out for a 440 as well.

Where was this picture taken?

On the Icefields Parkway (Hwy 93) between Banff and Jasper Alberta near the Sunwapta Pass. This was in 1980 or 81. You can get a feel for the grade at the rest area by the angle of us walking.

It looks to perfect to be a real background...... I admire you fellows that live in the wide open like that

Way cool, yes I could see the grade. I'm going to basically be in this area next summer, I might just have to make a detour.

That's a bad boy truck there! Love it.

 

[thrashingcows]

Very cool truck. I too would be glad to see it was still around. I have been looking for a few of the cars I've sold over the years. Haven't spotted any of them yet.

Wow after you mentioned the grade...I could see how you are all leaning up hill....Great effect!!

Seemed like every homeless Viet Nam vet slept in one of those behind a Howard Johnsons somewhere.

I rotated the picture to put it in better perspective.

Wow, I must be good. A full day and nobody noticed (more than the rotation)

[MrMoparCHP]

Is that a challenge? I can do it, but I'd have to ask myself where is the value in it. The other picture probably to me 20-30 minutes, I have taken 20-30 hours.

One of my early works...

Good job adding the left portion and the extra roadway on the bottom. But you are right, I just took a quick look and not at the details.

Divorced, you say.....

 

[MrMoparCHP]

Divorced, you say.....

Haha, yes but neither of them are me. That was my cousins girlfriend at the time but that wasn't my cousin.

Ok,
Yes I am divorced, neither or the two people in the picture are me.
The girl in the picture was the girlfriend of my cousin at the time I did this project.
The guy that was removed is not my cousin.

[MrMoparCHP]

Ok, I couldn't resist...

You straighten picture frames every time you walk by one, don't you - LOL

neither or the two people in the picture are me.

I hope not.....
