I like them both!
Very beautiful styling on both Sweet photos
And I say bring back both! Very nice Bill!
Ah, the old Crysler. A few of them still around during the 1950s when I was a kid. And not to forget the Studebaker with its jet intakes on the front! Is this a military plane? With all that shiny metal it would be seen a far ways off. Very smooth metal work, which your photo catches very nicely. Another thing your photo catches nicely is a photographer with company reflected in the engine cowling! And you haven't crossed the low barrier for the photo. This gave me a good chuckle - the photographer catching himself in the photo - reminds me of the Chicago "Bean" photos. Keep up the good work! :-)
Super shot Bill. They don't make em like that anymore!!!!!
Very nice shot, Bill.
interesting sho
A really elegant image, Bill. Beautifully done.
Great shot of this sleek, shiny metal beauty. Don't know if that very dark background was just there or you postworked it, but either way it works perfectly to offset the reflective metal. This reminds me of a car I once saw at the Blackhawk Auto Museum (Danville, California). It was a 1926 Daimler Salon Cabriolet owned by an Indian maharajah that was all shiny unpainted metal like this (though it was more brass colored than silver). It had horns that were shaped like boa constrictors mounted on the front fenders. Why didn't I take a picture of it? Temporary insanity is all I can think of, but I did find several pictures of it online & here's one with a brief description & history of the car: 1926 Daimler
super plane
back when things were not cookie cutter...
A lovely shot of this beauty, Bill! Clicked that link - definitely some similarities.. I'd love to have that '37 Chrysler... Back when cars were made out of metal! :-D
cool
outstanding
Wow, that's got Amelia Earhart, Wiley Post, and a US Army Air Corps trainer written all over it, Bill. Stellar contrast and lighting effects in this one.
Outstanding capture!!!
Beautiful! Reminds me of an Airstream trailer... Great shot, Bill!
Late deco moving into 40's chunk. Outstanding shape, love the unpainted metal, and your presentation is terrific!
I've always been partial to the Airflow.
Stunning capture Bill. God Bless.
Not exactly a Mustang, suitably banged about though for its age... but there is just not enough polished raw metal on planes today. I love all the rivets and seams and labels... STEP? And I thought you hang your goggles on it? ;-)
As you know Bill i'm a huge fan of the Chrysler Airflow's and this is a beauty along the same lines. Chrysler have started a new series of advertisments over here in the UK trying to link their cars of today to the stylish cars of yesteryear but alas todays cars just don't do it for me. Wonderful post and link Bill :)
Splendid image.
Excellent photo Bill....
Wow that is really nice the way u have done this one.
I love the car & this pic is great!!
Super image and work Bill!
I remember this lol Topeka? Yes? That was a fascinating place ....a right jumble of interesting aircraft... And it was a bonus to get in the maintenance hanger! lol I have some really cool shots from there! Must dig them out! Thanks for this Bill.. Rob
This is amazing Bill! The B&W treatment is spot on! I really like this a lot.
Nicely done Bill!
