Post your classic car-themed photos here

^ 1969 Pontiac Firebird 400 sans hood tach.

Looks to be sitting a little light on the front suspension...possible missing engine?
 
Ahhh...an good thread revived! Some beauts!

A follow thru from my previous post on Sept 7th, 2020 -- the rest of the Jeep with my boys. They are 26 years old now, so it has been awhile! I'm pretty sure this is the first time they posed for me and the 8x10. Very curious, yet unsure of what was expected of them. They got use to it over the next dozen or so years.

8x10 silver gelatin contact print -- eventually a platinum/palladium (which will tame those highlights easily).

Logan, I really love this photograph - though I'm not sure about the car I see ...
Great mood here - like from an old Hollywood Golden Age B movie ...

Macfred, that looks to me to be a 1950 Dodge 4 door sedan.
 

1956 Nash Metropolitan. Taken on Main St. Howard City, Michigan. 2017. Ten minute window where there were no "modern" influences.

Taken in front of what was once Tasker's Drug Store.

This is the only surviving negative that I have after our flood last year.

My wife has a print hanging in her office.
 

Great picture.

It´s mine. I needed an appropriate car for my Hasselblad...

That's the best reason ever to drive a Volvo!

I had a 245 which my wife crashed after 5 years, then a 945 for 18 years which I had to push off because of environment regulations as it was a Diesel.
My Hasselblad is luckily not submitted to environment regulations (at least until now)...
 
I spent a couple of days earlier this month attending the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion in Monterey, CA held annually during 'Car Week'.I thought it would be fun to document the frenzy of activity that goes on in the paddock area during the race weekend and to see classic race cars being used as they were intended, rather than up on pedestals in a museum.

I've been busily developing the film I shot over those two days and I've started to share a selection of the photos on my web site*. I wasn't sure where else on Photrio to post this but thought this thread seemed appropriate.

For anyone interested, all of the photos were shot with Leica M cameras using 35mm and 21mm Leica lenses. Film was HP5 developed in HC-110.

Enjoy!

*Hopefully it's ok that I've posted a link to my web site rather than including the photos directly on Photrio. There are a fair number of images and I figured it would be easier to view them in a slideshow on my site than in a Photrio post).
