Default C8 at the campground

When I went to look at it, year before last, it was sitting just down the slope behind the campground office parking lot. Last time I drove by on the highway, I took a look to see if I could get a glimpse of the top of the advertising sign frame which had been welded to frame, and I think it was still there.
As Rob L notes, it is a Chev for sure: when I looked at it, it still had the engine and driveline in it. much of the cab and controls were still intact. I took a few cellphone snaps of it, which I should have a look for - not sure where I put them.
I'll be out to the dacha again next week, but I usually don't have the time or daylight to go over to Sydney for a look, even though it's all of about ten minutes out of my way. Maybe I'll swing by for another look-see, or even a chat with the Shady Oaks folks if they are around. It would be nice to retrieve the thing, even if just for safekeeping.
