Tiny, those are some really cool pictures. Like the large tires on the rear of your vehicle.

Here's an update on my car. Took the 17's off and put the 19's back on. I like it both ways. The big and little tires are stored safely in the dark for a while. Enjoy

Tiny - great pictures. Thanks for posting.

I like the stance of your coupe. Is it lowered? If so how much and how did you do it?

Thanks,
Will

I really did. The wood was so rotten it no longer held nails. One day it started blowing off so I removed it. Last summer I changed the wood out, this summer I'll do a new top.

Will, no its not lowered. All stock springs ect...

Here's a similar pose in a different location with a different treatment to the photo
Enjoy

Yesterdays tour was through Lassen Volcanic park. What a fantastic day. 8 Model A's and just shy of 200 miles. No real issues other than the cars having a little trouble breathing the air at 8600' . Here are some of the highlights. Enjoy!!
What tour isn't complete without a single lane bridge?
The line up

President and Vice President

My cruising partner and I

Chugging along up to 8500' Lassen peak up ahead

Down the back side. I love my new brakes

<thread hi-jack>

Here's one of mine I liked.

brothers oregon

But I cheat. 8X10 Eastman film camera about 10 years older than the car, film, and the lens once upon a time was used on a thing called a mirroscope. It was a projector, of sorts. One of my fave's.

That's a Great shot Jim. I want a large format camera someday. Tin types and Glass plate negatives really appeal to me. The biggest camera I have is a medium format 6x7. It's a great portrait camera. It has a nice soft focus
