Chris, That's a good gallery and representative of rural/small town USA. Except you forgot the vacant retail shops. Since the 1920's, the educated and industrious farm folks of the rural midwest have moved into the big cities. What's left is not very picturesque.
I have to tell you that the station wagon (Ford Country Squire) really looks in good condition. It needs wheel covers, but old cars in this climate develop rust. It is a body cancer that eats from behind the wheels and along the rocker panels up the car. Think snow versus Road Salt. And those flames decorating that pickup truck. I'm sure we can get you some for your car in GB. They are probably a custom paint job, but we can find decals to send you. You know they make the vehicle go faster. Regards, Bob S.
