    HRPT2.jpg HRPT1.jpg HRPT6.jpg Today's cover story "Right place in another time" made me think of this, I have always liked taking pictures of my cars is some kind of historical scenery. (my avatar was taken in Green River UT, twenty-five years ago) I searched for similar threads but I couldn't find any even though I'm sure they exist. Feel free post links to them. Anyway, here's a couple of my 59-

    Hello,
    (I posted this on a sedan delivery thread, but it fits right in this thread)
    Nick Macaluso’s 40 Ford Sedan Delivery was very sanitary and well detailed. We thought it would look good in front of the older looking restaurant. We found this 40’s aero/ranch farm themed restaurant near the OC Airport. (gone now) This was one of the shots I found in my files. It is sepia toned to make it look like it was the 40’s. But, later, I was sorry my photo composition was not the greatest as there is a tree growing out of the back of the roof. But, the setting and the early morning mist was just perfect and other than that tree, a perfect shot.

    Thanks,

    Jnaki
