[b]On the way from Carlisle to the turnpike you pass this old repair shop that appears to have been closed for
quite sometime. This time I decided to check it out and thought it was a pretty cool slice of time!
The tow trucks stickers expired 20 years ago.

[b] The coolest part though, was what was on the inside!! The picture quality is not that great, as I was getting
some flash back and reflections - but you'll get the idea.

The first bay on the right was cluttered, but still workable -

The main portion of the garage was loaded with junk and treasures!! Sorry for the duplication, but each shot shows a little more then the other.

That Elky has been out front, for sale, for years. I've wanted to stop in that place, but I am always in a hurry to get to the fairgrounds, then in a hurry to get home.

Thanks Glenn!

That tow truck and the pontiac with the foliage coming from the grill caught my eye. I would like a vintage tow truck like that. Very cool http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Tow truck still has the Chevelle knee knocker tach in it I tried to buy my first year going in 83. The guy was older than dirt then I can't still believe his still alive. All that stuff has been sitting there just like that for I don't know how long.
