People & Cool Cars in the 1950s- As they were.

I guess it’s a Catch 22. In this mobile device era we live in, there is a powerful digital camera at our disposal at all times, which makes us tend to snap more photos then ever before- We are now chronicling each stage of a car build, videos the first moment the motor fires, and every little detail and part is digitally documented. Thats good thing right? I guess the only thing we’ve really lost from our physical film days is the “occasion” of taking a picture. Someone holding up a real camera often makes the subject recognize it as a moment to the photographer, casual as it may be. Here’s some great moments from the 1950s with random, ordinary people having fun with hot rods and custom cars.
