September 11, 200916 yr GM or non GM, nice cars and nice photography. Let's post some interesting stuff. Local GTI above...
September 12, 200916 yr Author Jesus sweet mother of Mary that thing is awesome, Siegen! Love the photography...thought of you at the "Italian Gathering" an Italian car show here in Columbus, Ohio. They ahd an area for non Italian cars, and there was an awesome NSX in red. The NSX is just pure automotive lustworthy... Chris
September 12, 200916 yr Speaking of NSX...I saw this at a recent show (hint:see plates): And yeah, they were parked within a few feet of each other!
September 12, 200916 yr Author Mustang, that blue Chrysler is fabulous!!! WOW! I'm just...speechless. balthazar...LOVE the B-59 in the barn. I love living in the midwest, and fall is my fav. time of year. The B-59 photo has a very mellow, fall like feel to it. You'll probably shoot me for saying this, but I love Japanese watercolor as an art form. That photo is so subtle and so good it reminds me of a good Japanese watercolor. TED, neat plates! Chevy Nick...glad to see someone beating the hell out of a vette. I've experienced firsthand what these cars can do, and it's a crying shame more people don't run them hard. Frogger-Excellent night shot...
September 12, 200916 yr En route to Canada, in Washington state, I saw this $29,290 MSRP Pontiac G8 with a sunroof. The color is too flashy, but I love the car. I really like the well-planned interior and the slightly different spin on a Pontiac steering wheel. And, ta-da, here's my car, crossing into its country of birth - Canada, of course The 2008 LaCrosse CX seen at Kitsilano/Jericho Beach with the North Shore mountains beyond. This picture shows the nice flow of the car that captivated me as a buyer, and as an owner. The Lion's Gate Bridge seen past the hood of my car: Edited September 12, 200916 yr by trinacriabob
September 12, 200916 yr Author Bob-nice to see that we have shared passion for silver cars. Would love to drive through the Pacific Northwest. Shot of the bridge in the background makes me want to go out there even more. Chris
September 12, 200916 yr That Rabbit is sitting kind of low, like it's nibbling the grass.:AH-HA_wink:
September 12, 200916 yr >>"balthazar...LOVE the B-59 in the barn. I love living in the midwest, and fall is my fav. time of year. The B-59 photo has a very mellow, fall like feel to it.

I shot the pic- that's my baby before The Teardown. Glad you liked it, I do too.

September 13, 200916 yr Would love to drive through the Pacific Northwest. Shot of the bridge in the background makes me want to go out there even more. The Lion's Gate Bridge connects the city of Vancouver on the south (shown the left) from Stanley Park to the North Shore suburbs (shown to the right) of North Vancouver (moolah) and West Vancouver (more moolah). Their downtown skyline is even further to the left, before you even enter Stanley Park, so it was completely out of sight at this point. In a weird kind of way, the PNW is home because my parents relocated there 20 years ago from Los Angeles. Yet, I still feel like a "visitor." I don't know if that's good or bad. Back to cars...bring on the pictures...
September 13, 200916 yr My own attempt at being "artistic" with my camera... Edited September 13, 200916 yr by GMTruckGuy74
September 13, 200916 yr Dude should have little lights behind his bugshield, so the bulldog glows devilish red at night out there on the lonely highway. That would surely make Peterbilts get over and let him pass.
September 13, 200916 yr Is that Kodachrome film? It has the color palette of it. Prolly. Kodak is what I always bought. The pic was taken in 1990.
September 14, 200916 yr My own attempt at being "artistic" with my camera... Gold Bulldog = powered by Mack
September 14, 200916 yr Still one of my favorites, owned by a friend who moved from VA Beach to Chicago (and was also the one who bought my Fleetwood for a new DD)...if anything, it's allowed him to get some of his best shots ever, full of skyline.
September 14, 200916 yr Not really a specific car, per se, but I love this shot of the Lever House in 1955 with all the Detroit iron lined up along the street
September 14, 200916 yr Author Not a great pic but I'd love to get this car down and start working on it... Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author I think 'blu was saying something about GM being the most creative car company ever. I would agree, and I love this shot of this car... ...can see why Oldsmoboi loves these things so much! Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author Love this one also. For some reason cars always look good driving out west in the desert. Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author Why is it that after 40 years of looking at these I still never get tired of them...
September 14, 200916 yr Author I need to be a new car buyer in 69...WOW! LOVE the front end on these.
September 14, 200916 yr Author Why is it cars of this era always look so damned good in Silver? Used to be a firebird of the same era in Silver running around Columbus here. Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author Crappy pic, but we ought to get Britain to knight the guy who came up with the stripe package on these cars!
September 14, 200916 yr Author I've seen these raced at Vintage races. Used to be an SCCA corner worker...thesecars are very impressive at 130 MPH when you are 15 feet from the track... Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author Be done post slutting in a minute, but I love the C pillar, spanked down roofline, and tail light treatment on these cars. Neat old mopar next to this one also.
September 14, 200916 yr Author Crappy pic...we talked about how good the new Camaro looks in white, the 69 isn't any too shabby either. Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author The houndstooth interior on these cars is great. Really a nice detail that "makes" the car, IMHO. Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author These things just look so damned good as race cars, also. This one just has "the look" Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author Has there ever been a car that can pull off so many "looks" from any other carmaker??? Ever? Again, a racecar look from a totally different theme, and it still works. Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Author Last one for right now...has there ever been a car that has said "get in and drive me" like this car does? Chris
September 14, 200916 yr Dude should have little lights behind his bugshield, so the bulldog glows devilish red at night out there on the lonely highway. That would surely make Peterbilts get over and let him pass. From what I heard Macks don't have enough $h! to pass ANYTHING so therefore the Peterbilt would have to LET him pass!
September 14, 200916 yr Hehe, Daryl, you scamp you. You know Mack is the Mack Daddy, why are you frontin', homie? :AH-HA_wink: And 66... I see some NON-FUNCTIONAL hood trim on some of those Cumurras. I demand they be sent back to the drawing board IMMEDIATELY and be made functional, or I am going to stick out my bottom lip and REFUSE to eat my vegetables!
September 15, 200916 yr Author Don't worry, 'blu. I've already arranged for those Camaro's to be crushed because they contain too much black plastic in the interior. Chris
