    Nice "artsy" shots! Your car looks pretty good, too.

    I'll have to resize a bunch of the pics I took from the downtown show and get them posted. Like I mentioned in your other thread, Wpg seems to have a much better car scene than we do. We have the quality and numbers of cars here, but no-one wants to take them to organised events for some reason.

    You have anycloseup shots of your grill. I'm trying to figure out what to do with the grill on my 53. I like yours with out the teeth.

    There's a reason why the car's so far away in that shot...:D

    I like the smoothed look too. I just pulled the teeth and put 5/16th carriage bolts in the holes. Some time I'll find a straight grill bar, fill the holes, and rechrome the proper way.

    Yep, pop. cresting 710,000. People rag on Winnipeg but its a pretty good place if you know where to look. This was shot in the railroad allowance a couple of blocks from my house.

    I just got back from touring Europe and as we were landing I couldn't believe how green the city was compared to what I'd been seeing.

    Admittedly the downtown skyline was mostly omitted from those shots.

    There are some tall buildings on the horizon...

    Here's one back toward the houses. Our neighbourhood is considered a 'core' area...
