Description
Captured back on 5/16/10 at the beautiful Muckenthaler 16th Annual Motor Car Festival, in beautiful Fullerton, California. The auto show was held on two days; the first for custom cars, the second for the elegant models. I attended both days. I was charged admission on both days, but it was worth it. Incidentally, I did post other pics of this car soon after I snapped them back in 2010, so this a reprise of sorts.
ZOOM at all costs.
As for the beauty itself, it has to be the most gorgeous, insanely elegant automobile I've ever encountered, and I've encountered tons/tonnes of them. And what other car do you know of that uses a mirror for a license plate? I tried researching this model, but ran into a maelstrom of for sale ads, and very little hard history on the manufacturer(s). Even Wikipedia led me astray. I did gather that these cars are built from kits. I really don't have time for research, so if you want more information on this beast, try your luck on Google.
Au revoir.

What a beauty she is, from the tip of the hood ornament to the rear bumper, and all the inches in between. I would love to own this! Exceptional panel of shots, Harry!
Superb five photo triptych Harry. I went looking for info on this beauty too. Apparently made by some outfit named Tiffany Bench Works. Probably only made 'em in the mid-80s (1983-1986?). Could find nothing else other than the same batch of ads that you did. Anyway, it was fun looking.
Fantastic shots of this so wonderful looking car. I am glad I dont have it. I could barely come around the corners of our little roads here LOL!
People sometimes scoff at kit cars, but I agree with you, that is one spectacularly beautiful and ornate car. Great shots, Harry!!
Harry, I can only leave one comment now, but I had to acknowledge your recent uploads and your larger size uploads too; and this is a great place to do it. I don't remember seeing this in your earlier uploads, but I've seen so many of your shots, I may have temporarily forgotten. But, in the full glow of zoom (all the clicks included), it's just glorious. The colors jump out at us. The sheen and glow is marvelous. You finessed the effects of light and shade so that the car stands out above all. You've given us enough views so we can see all the things this car includes. The horns and lights and grill are like big shiny toys in your hands, the side tires are brown and shiny, the glass reflections are beautiful and tranquil, and those two bottom closeups are awash in the kinds of hues and lights that every car owner wishes would last forever (it never does), and which I imagine makes every car owner want to keep their car behind glass for fear of the tiniest scratch. You faded the background just enough so it doesn't interfere, and the middle shot---where it looks out into the light, while sitting in the shade---makes it like it's on its way into the Big Spotlight. Beautiful capture of an amazing car, and another jewel in your series of amazing car shots. Bravo!
