    Who know about the white sports car? I recognize some parts, Stude bumper, 50 Chevy grille bar and maybe an early Vette windsheild.

    Thank you Tom. It looks to me as though there is a new recipe for metallic paints.
    Maybe your skills. I can't imagine the man hours to achieve those glosses.

    If you can't make it to the GNRS or the LARS, or Pebble Beach looking at Tom Davison photos from the events is the next best thing to being there. Thank you Tom!

    The white car is called a Cobra. It has nothing to do with Carroll Shelby and those Cobras.

    Is was a prototype car made in ‘53 or ‘54 for the Motorama auto show or something like that show. It has Olds power, front suspension and an Olds dash as well as the other parts from other cars mentioned. I hope I didn’t butcher up the information too much. It’s really cool looking and had a great appearance. I could easily picture the car in photos taken in front of mid century modern architecture.

    Tom thanks for taking the extra time it takes to compose these photos without people cluttering up the shot, and the time it takes to edit and add your wonderfully subtle effects. Not to mention all of the other great decisions you make, waiting for the light conditions you deem necessary, etc. You are in a class by yourself and we appreciate your outstanding annual coverage of this event.
     
  15. ^ I'll second that.

    Crazy standard, what a show. Long live USA!

    Oldpl8s those are some great pictures too. Walked by your booth yesterday and saw the collection of license plates. Neat stuff! MO also allows YOM plates on hot rods etc. The only way to go.

    Hi Tom,
    I had to zap your mid 70's Lincoln pic.
    Great pics of the show.

    Thanks,
    Cob

    Can't add much to what's already been said, except that from the photos I've seen it sure appears this would be the year to attend in person! Thanks!

    What kind of drugs would you have to do to paint a car like the '58 Chevy? I think I like it!!
