Wow!!! Car porn!
You get to see them all out there don't you Chris...... But then, you choose a mini????

Oh do these cars bring back memories. Back when you could actually tell what year they were. Nice photo work.
I do have to mention that 23 window VW Bus in the background...SWEET!

I do love being able to see cars like this all the time - they are wonderful creations

Thanks @Glenn Clabo - they do take you back don't they

swmbo loves the buses - I'm not too keen the prices though!

Lovely stuff Chris and the colours are nicely period too. I especially like the first one.

Thanks @Pete Askew - I tried to keep the colors muted, and even did some cross processing on Neon Dream to enhance the mood

Having said that, it was already f/dark by the time we arrived, so muted lighting was all I had to work with!

Love those Chevies and your photos do them proud. But that VW caught my eye too. I'd love a ride in that thing, especially on a cold windy day in Montana, maybe when it's -25F.
