Featured History 28-31 MODEL A THAT DOES IT FOR YOU! Feel free to post your Model A

I almost bought this one years back when it was for sale. Wish I would have now dammit.

 

Check out those hubcaps!!!

 

Hey Joe
Is that a Tbird steering wheel driving that Yblock?
Nice

 

It's a '58 Fairlane steering wheel! Painted to match the Y Block color!

Thanks!

 

@40ragtopdown, I admire the imagery you share immensely. I love this image but like quite a number I have seen in search lately they look to have been filtered making things look less detailed like tires headlight lenses flat with no detail.

Someone just commented on the Hubcaps...heck they're quite ribbed but also have had that detail washed away with the process applied. Maybe it's a FB thing, I see it in the filename.

I doubt there's much one can do but just for shits and giggles I searched that image and found this one...



I right clic save a lot myself. I'm curious if you've noticed this as well.

Filters can improve but they can rob images of admirable details. Onward we go...keep'em coming...​

Joe here's a Thread on those Wheelcovers...they work well on Hotrods and Customs...scan was shared by @Rikster it the Thread I shared.

 

That sure is quite a difference in detail between those two pictures. Maybe something got lost from being copied so many times.

Still having fun with it...

Could be, I have been seeing a lot of FB stuff popping up looking that way...its just recently. Maybe it's the cycling as you mention. But its a very distinct look and bald looking tires and smoothed details are a common feature.
