    Jimmy six,
    In order to find the last car in the last issue of Life Magazine
    it looks like you would have to buy one.
    About $5.

    You are right.
    You didn't ask to see the last photo of a car in Life.
    You only pointed out there should have been only one photo!

    The article reads - These photographs were taken by Francis Miller for LIFE magazine of an all-girls hot rod club called “The Dragettes” in what appears to be 1950s Kansas City.

    When Life Magazine first uploaded their collection there were no watermarks and you could download the original huge size. Lasted for about a year or two until you see what you have today.

    You can search the google hosted Life archive here:
    http://images.google.com/hosted/life

    Most of you have probably seen these from Pomona 1952.
    If not then you have something to talk about.
