Good to see that Sigma lens put to good use...my 17-70 is my workhorse lens.

Would like to have seen some more pics of the whole cars, if you have some.

I'm hoping some of the purple will go away when I shoot other than wide open :-)

Of the parts in this thread, I only have a couple complete cars.

I've posted some other complete cars in the "planes, trains, and automobiles" thread, and will add more in the next few days.

Man, I'm enjoying these car shots. The big, scary black Chrysler is very cool - much better than the movie in which it played a role.

In 1957 the Ford Fairlane 500 and the Studebaker Golden Hawk were available from the factory, special order, supercharged. I almost think I have seen some of those cars on the pages of one of the Peterson's Publications or one of the other car magazines. Thanks for some great car parts......Cliff

The Petersen museum has a "Hollywood Car" display of the authentic vehicles. These may be "stand-ins".
