Google Maps Bond location hunting
Watching GOLDFINGER while looking up Google maps.I found the spot where the convoy turns on Harrison and Main Street in Maldaugh , KY. It's interesting how it looks somewhat the same now.

Kind of inspired by ON THE TRACKS OF 007, and curious what some of the locations look like today.

The bar sounds great - I love quirky little unofficial 007 tributes. I visited Corfu some years ago, mostly because I've always liked My Family and Other Animals, but I missed this!
Jimmy's wife (Eleni) remembers the days when filming took place. While we were sitting outside he gave us two large folders with Bond-related stuff. Apparently a member of the German James Bond fan club once visited all the places on Corfu and documented it nicely. You should be able to find the documentation somewhere on the net.
The owner was really excited that I outed myself as a Bond fan. We had a long chat and some delicious toast, and at the end he prepared a fantastic dessert (which was - to our embarrassment - on the house).
If you are still planning your summer holidays, check out Corfu. Tons of Bond-related sights, and all within a short drive from each other.

They compare film stills with pictures they took themselves a few years ago.
They even visited Auric Enterprises in a white Lotus Esprit. By the way, that car is owned by a Bond fan (probably a member on this forum?) who built his own Lotus from a poor example and even went as far as to re-enact several scenes. I think I should share this here, before I lose the link again. Enjoy:

I am planing a trip to lisbon in summer, and i wanted to see if i can locate some Bond spots beforehand.
This is the spot where Tracy's death was filmed:

That's it - amazing! Very good detective work, @00Agent . Even the old stone posts are visible, with the larger gap right where it should be.
You absolutely have to mark the spot secretly, maybe attach a 007-sticker to the guardrail.
haha that's a good idea. Or put a small wooden cross there, with Tracy on it.
I was in Corfu, too, and could also visit Pagi and the owner of the little restaurant was indeed a very nice guy. He even showed me all scenes of corfu on the big screen inside the bar and explained me where to find the locations in the village. That was perfect.
Corfu is a dream for every bond fan, so many locations of FYEO.
I hope I will be there one day, too!!! Is it close to lisbon?
“on the tracks of 007“ is organizing a trip to the locations of OHMSS in Portugal and Switzerland this summer...
It's around one driving hour south of lisbon.
There are many locations from 3 movies, but here's a particularly good one from FRWL, as most of the main cast was in this spot. It's the entrance to the russian consulate. Looks pretty run down today. You can still spot the big mosque in the background. The street and sidewalk have been completely redone though.

Being on the west coast, rain isn t unheard of.
