Pure……......., I guess is how you would describe these pics. The Ivo/Norm pic is a Favorite, Norm in his stroker hat and Tommy all business in his crash helmet, who won?! ( Doesn't really matter). Boy Howdy, does it get any better?!!!!!!!
Even though it’s not a very clear shot, it’s clear to me that I really like this coupe in the background of the photo posted above ^ by @ramblin dan
They cropped the cover photo, removing the fellow in the background that is so bow legged, he couldn't catch a pig in a ditch. Awesome stuff
It is really great seeing Kodachrome photos, they just have life about them that other colour photos just don't have. It is a shame when an amazing photo starts to colour shift and it loses that rich life like colour. Even though this has colour shifted this is still one of my favourite photos in my collection, so much history, icons and eye candy in one photo.
^Jimmy^, the photos have a 'warmness' to them that beckons to the eye. The A is definitely unique, but the rail job is really special! Do you have any more info on that? Thanks,Carp.
By golly, those photos are beautiful! Suitable for framing. Thanks for sharing Ryan! Was the Oldsmobile bunch an Olds Club? Momma gonna take my Kodachrome away....
