hmmmm....I think if that was my Jeep, i'd have to kick the windshield out, crawl over the hood, and walk the rest of the way. Anybody that had balls enough to drive it off that cliff could have it. If they made it, I would appreciate a lift back to town though.

It's Black Bear Road going to the Black Bear mine near Telluride Colorado. Apparently it was a wagon road for the mine at the turn of the last century.

I think this is freightrain going to Beaver Springs- the camera was mounted on the bulldog's head.

Wow, and I used to think I was going 4 wheeling on the pipeline and Westvaco forest trails around Appomattox and Buckingham. Beautiful scenery there. In the video I mean, not so much on the pipeline.

A battleship in the middle of town and a monkey riding a bicycle, what else could you ask for?! Great pics!

Tim

The GTO had a 'good engine' in it. . . a 396. . .

Can't figure the Battledhip though.

The Battleship in the city has an interesting story,it was set-up at Union Square NYC in 1917,to serve as the Navy's recruitment center,a full size,dreadnaught class Battleship,with a full crew of "regular" Navy men,another neat picture shows the USS Arizona steaming up the east river!...........................................Mark

COOL INFO!!

uSELESS INFORMATION-----The ''cage masts'' on the battleships were made of lattice works so they could be retracted to pass under the brdge span to and from the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Paul
