Albert, here's another shot showing the front end of the old truck. DA18-55

It seems we are both correct. Being from Canada, of course it looks like a Fart 'n' Go!

a mix of train car people and the urban landscape in Shinjuku. The train in the picture is the famous Yamanote line which runs in a cycle in Tokyo. It seems like it doesn't have start and end terminal station and its stop at a lot of famous station in Tokyo, Shibuya, Harajuku, Shinjuku, Shinagawa, the main Tokyo station, and many more.

K3 + DA*55
it is one of the first images I took (as a test) with this lens yesterday. This guy is replacing my FA50 macro which was an excellence lense but I want a WR lens that why I switch to *55.
It better be good because my old FA50 macro was not a very expensive lens but it set the bar so high in all category.

Land Rover Defender. This one is immaculate inside and out. I don't know enough to narrow down the year.

Everytime I drive by and this tram is looming, I shall snap a shot!

It honestly looks better, aesthetically, than its modern counterpart I see often around my way. Cool capture.

Fargo and Dodge pickups were the same, the Fargo being built and sold in Canada, the Dodge built and sold in the US.

Same for Ford and Mercury pickups.

And I believe that Acadian was the Canadian version of the Chevrolet pickup.

This' the shot I had... parked in Jackson Heights, Queens on Saturday. You don't see many of these on the roads around here.

Missed the focus as I was rushed... Helios 44M-4 58/2

A special Ford pickup indeed, notice the bed is integral to the cab, rather than separate. A 1962 F100 Custom.

I just love listening/reading what car people have to say about good cars... thanks.

With that said, again I say this - this' a vehicle from the days when US vehicles were the cars to own.
