Wow, amazing images Mark and what a journey no doubt you will remember for always.
There is still something about film that I love (showing my age).

20 years as a continental/roving trucker myself, eating out of Café Camion every day, sleeping in the Iveco Hotel every night...I love those shots, they bring back memories of how truck driving was when it was crossing frontiers, not just a daily milkround.
Did I mention I wrote a best-selling* book about it?
* It sold better than my other two... :P

Great stuff.
It's funny how (even without car models or clothing styles) you can tell roughly when images were taken from the photograph itself.
