Arrow Pics of the new paint!!

Here are some pictures of the new paint job. All of the body damage done by that other shop(if you know the story) was fixed. The color is black magic pearl.

Mike, yes it is that one.

Shutemup, sorry I don't know the year but next time I'm near there I'll check out the sign.

Looks very similiar to one that I used to crawl through and jump from as a kid that is in Burfordsville Missouri. It was built in the 1860's.

That bridge may be older but it says it is only open to pedestrians. Interesting history for that bridge too.

Well it's functiong to pedestrians anyway.

I was just home a couple weeks ago and took my kids to see it. I was like

"WTH are theese poles here I wanna drive across it"

It's in a very rural area on a basicially untraveled road but apparently they had some concerns after the last flood and decided to close it to cars since there is another bridge only a couple miles away as a preventative measure.

I don't think you can drive on that one either...the Jericho bridge in Lawn Gnome's Pic still has constant traffic.
