TOWN LIFE PT 21

 

A VW Rabbit with custom blue rims sits outside Christy's Pet Shop.

On a warm day, a woman rides her Jeep CJ-7 Golden Eagle with the top off.
The 80's; a newly re-painted Chevy C-10 shortbed is parked on County Lane.
The 80's part 2; a Kenworth K100 Aerodyne pulls a Rock Island Lines reefer trailer into town. After the Rock Island shut down in 1980, the APRR acquired their trucking subsidiary, the Rock Island Motor Transport (RIMT) and merged it into the AP's Appalachian Motor Transport (APMT). Coincidentally, the K100's colors match the original colors of the Rock Island's freight diesel locomotives!
The 80's part 3; a custom-painted van rolls along.
Back to today; a Ford F350 Heavy Duty, decked out with a brush guard, roll bar with lights, CB antenna, and an ATV in the bed. 
A crowd has gathered in front of Dairy Queen, with cars from today to yesterday. Note the hot rod and the classic Cadillac Eldorado convertible!
