Only a small part is paved, most of it is dirt with trucks piled up on top of eachother. I walked by one truck with a car poorly stacked on it's cab with gas leaking out! It's A&B Truck in Bario Logan.

Man the wife would have a fit if I hauled that thing to the driveway. No hiding that one. I believe they offered some color schemes and decals on these trucks, 72 I know, but I can't remember? Someone posted some paint options a while back with the info.

Who had the scan of the Eagle and Feathers ect. brochure? It'd be cool to see if they match. That's one rare truck if it had one of those decal schemes. Was that a dealer or factory installed kit?

doesnt look like eagle or feathers, but could be another one, there were other decals available, they were dealer instaleld, not listed on options sticker so theres no way to tell if its correct or what it is, and why is that truck int he yard for ? the cab is in damn good shape and the doors and all, damn... thats stupid really.,

Hey up here in Winnipeg there is a Scooby Doo replica van driving around. They did a real nice job on it too. Complete with a "I love Scooby Snacks" bumper sticker. I should get a pic of it one day.
