My area just got added to google street view, after checking out my house, I noticed it was a sunny day when the picture was taken & my daily driver was in the driveway...
I thought to myself , well very good chance it was a work day & Midge would be in the parking lot at work (as all Spridgets should be driven on every nice day when we have such a short season in Northern Ontario), sure enough my Midget was captured in the work parking lot right where it should be.
Just thought some people might be able to see if their Spridgets got captured by the camera as well in their respective area, kinda fun, also it makes me think of Spridget driving season... ahhh well 2 more months & I should at least have Midge out for a "wake up run"
 
The street view for my home and work are very old. At work it caught my daily driver truck but at home it caught me working on my old school bus and you can see my Thunderbird and my Jag XKE sitting in the garage.

cool - here is Midge in the parking lot at work - the more pictures of Spridgets the better !
Yes those who are fortunate to have hidden homes or long driveways are lucky, but since anyone can drive by on a public street and see my house on a normal day, they aren't sharing any new information with street view, have to admit I'm happy my lawn had just been cut, at least my place was looking as good as it could :smile:

You could say, "At least I didn't have a busted looking forty year old school bus out front."

ha ha ha - true enough :lol:
 
Funny, the street view of my house only shows an oil stain in the driveway where the Midget is usually parked.
 
They have driven past my house yet. When I do goto google earcth I can see my MG and BUg in my old driveway. I also found my spit sitting in the previous owners driveway..
