XtremeMarine · 03-01-2008, 06:21 PM

Very nice shots. Really like the one of cresting the old farm rock wall. Good looking truck.

GreatDivide1 · 03-01-2008, 06:30 PM

thanks.....that is toms back yard lol in that pic..

XtremeMarine · 03-01-2008, 06:42 PM

I wish Ihad a back yard like that. The house lot in Derry is less than a quarter acre. But then again ,the front yard is Beaver Lake, so it was nice growing up; lol! How long have you had that truck? Did you search for number one, or was it a lucky find?

GreatDivide1 · 03-01-2008, 06:53 PM

i have had it for a couple months.. the kid i got it fromtold me that it had alot of rust and a push bar and thats all he knew about it

.....sooo yea a very lucky find on my behalf

... i kind of feel badabout cutting it up

...but not really lol oohyea oops heres the one of the bimmer..

XtremeMarine · 03-01-2008, 07:00 PM

Even cutting it up, you're using it. It's the rovers that sit in driveways and garages rusting away that I feel bad for. They are designed to be used, and they actually feel better when they're out and about. lol.

stolenheron · 03-01-2008, 07:18 PM

nice. what are the special qwerks of the G.D.E?

GreatDivide1 · 03-01-2008, 07:46 PM

stolenheron · 03-01-2008, 08:01 PM

lol but you have a sweet badge and a serial number and thats what makes it worth more. its a cool model.

Wortho · 03-02-2008, 04:04 AM

That looks cool, no i mean cold, bloody cold. I'm sure it was a lot of fun though, looks it. I'd love to try driving on snow(or walking on it for that matter).

SafariDave · 03-02-2008, 06:52 AM

Wow! A number 1 GED! That's awesome!!! Did you have it painted black? What size tires are you running? Are those stock Springs or lift and what size lift?

XtremeMarine · 03-02-2008, 09:42 AM

GD; if I remember correctly, the whole point of them was to commemorate the great divide expedition they did in 90' though. The leftover's was just the reason their were so many of them.

tjrovertech · 03-02-2008, 11:10 AM

nice classic man! looks pretty nice how many miles? looks like you have a nice lift on it now.
