So i was checking out the neighborhood and looked at my house, well thats my 71 sitting infront of my house haha. they most have updated there maps, cause it wasnt there before and our back yard doesnt have grass. we were in the process of redoin it. just thought this was neat. anyone see there trucks????

ostncoln · 11-15-2007, 09:14 AM

that got me thinking, here is a shot of a guys place north of town pretty much everything you see down there is 67-72 bodystyle trucks burbans panels blazers, anything you could possibly need he has, in his shop he has a buch of stuff sorted out ready to go such as buckets and consoles, trim, complete big blocks, i could go on and on, there is even an old school bus that is full of doors. most of the stuff out there is still complete and would be excellent projects

67ChevyRedneck · 11-15-2007, 09:28 AM

Cool

But after some thought, I don't think I'd show where my truck is parked on the web...

I dont think he has to worry about it seein he is in sacramento pretty tough to find that road in a city that large with no signs or directions, sweet pic though

hotrodhomi · 11-15-2007, 09:59 AM

I can see my truck in my driveway, but I sold it. Wifes Honda is there too.

not to throw the thread of course....but OSTNCOLN how are the prices at that junkyard?Might take a drive up there..everything here in the DFW area is pretty much stripped now

Orange · 11-15-2007, 03:15 PM

Here's my car sitting at 145 Maple Street in Old Township, GA.

(That's not even close to resembling my address BTW). GA is the only think familiar.

they guy is real nice but he is not always around so you just kinda take a chance driving by

That is freakin cool! Not sure when the photo of my house was taken, but it must have been over a year ago as I can't see the bed of my truck that put in the back yard, but I can see my dog!

Longhorn Man · 11-15-2007, 08:34 PM

when I do that for this area, i can see my old 69 (that was sold in 04) here, at the ex's place, AND at work!

Maybe if I can zoom in enough, I can shop for what I need without ever leaving my 'puter screen!!

Brock · 11-16-2007, 11:41 AM

I did mine through Mapquest (Aerial Image) and ... my house isn't even there, so their pics are older than 2004.

Shouldn't have gotten rid of such a talented truck

Longhorn Man · 11-16-2007, 04:08 PM

oh, but it was beyond hope.
The only thing it did well, is donate parts.

cameeks · 11-17-2007, 03:40 AM

found mine

timcos · 11-17-2007, 06:56 AM

Try local.live.com. Enter your address. Some locales offer a Bird's Eye View...and you can almost see blades of grass.

Here is mine on Google Maps in Utah about 2002, I sold this truck in 2004. See the big swirl in street...transmission fluid from my truck, (drive shaft gone and driveway at about 40 degrees) I had covered with kitty litter to soak it up. BTW...the kitty litter did a great job. No local.live.com bird's eye view for this home. I left there in 2005.

It was a 71 C10 LWB.

Now check out Fenway Park on local.live.com
