The location is Meddings Seafood in Milford DE. Great place to eat, excellent home made soups and the owners are very nice. He bought it simply to use as a flagpole. He has many toys! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Rolleyes' />

Nice folks that own this truck too! Whatever they were cooking the day we stopped by would knock your nose off! It smelled amazing! Too bad Fritz got stung while we were shooting this truck, hopefully he's forgiven me by now, hahaha!!

LOL, how can I forget the smell of the garlic coming out of this house... it was enough to knock a vampire dead all the way in Translyvania from Pennsylvania. I have long since forgiven you, it was a great trip!! I still really want to come down your way, I keep looking through your thread and the "Not a Winter Thaw" trip thread and keep seeing nice stuff (the Pierce PUC from Boilings Springs, SC is my computer background at work.. I really want to shoot that!!).

You're always welcome down in my area Fritz! There are quite a few interesting trucks in this area! I really need to get back up to Lancaster and catch up on all the trucks that have been delivered since we visited in '07. Next time, I really wanna get Gibraltar and Smokestown, because Fletcher VFD's and Mountain Home VFD's rescue trucks (both NC FD's close to my area) are now serving at those agencies.



I've been out doing a little shooting lately. Here's what I've uncovered...

This one is still a mystery to me. I shot it down in Oak Ridge, TN a few years ago at a car lot. While down in Sevierville, TN last Saturday, I found it parked in the parking lot of a large Furniture Store. It appears to be a permanent fixture there, however it has a valid tag on it as well. Can anyone help me with the origins of this truck please?

Once it goes in there it never comes out ! That one will be exported to South America. You can not go in there any more to buy parts.
