Cherry's #10


This one leaves me
utterly
beyond words.




Can you make out the "hood" ornament?

I am always convinced that these automobiles speak for themselves.
They are simply art on wheels.
Besides, they usually leave me more or less speechless.
Silence Is Golden.
Better to be seen and not heard.
So I'll shut up already
and let the pics
have their
thousand words.


Psssssttt!
Don't forget to click on 'em for a closer look,
and click on 'em a second time for an even closer look!

Cherry's #7 - Classic Cars






I didn't take notes, so I can't tell you any details about this great old car, but it sure is fun to look at!
Taken at Laguna Seca, September 2010.

Cherry's #4


1963 Ford Thunderbird convertible.
What a beaut!
When I was in college in 1975 we bought a hardtop version of this very car.  We loved it, but couldn't afford to maintain it at the time.
Great memories, though.

Taken at Cherry's Jubilee, Laguna Seca, 12 September 2010.
The indefatigable Canon PowerShot A590.

Cherry's #3


This 1926 Dodge is amazing to behold.
One wonders what the original owner would think of this paint job.
To our 21st century hot rod lovin' eyes, the "real fire" effect is awesome.


The high gloss, the fire effect on a black background and very little further customization make this a stunning specimen.



Original hood decor (or darn good replicas) includes the irresistible cloisonne-like Dodge Brothers emblem.



The high gloss plays a few tricks on the eyes.
I managed to capture myownself in the rear window.

Taken 12 September 2010.

Modest but reliable Canon PowerShot A590.
