    Was that shot at Rador? That has to be the wacky Rolls up on the Main lawn. Did you notice the headlight covers? Very cool.

    I guess

    The car was indeed, spectacular. Perhaps the 59 Cadillac of its era. It was done to the point of gaudiness. You almost expect to see it in a 30's era Disney cartoon with a cigar smoking wolf behind the wheel.

    I admired it for its finish and execution yet prefer other coach built cars of the era for their purity in design, line and flourish.

    In anyone's book the 39 Labourdette would have to be entered as highly unique.

    regards

    You'd think for that he'd have brought out some MF towels to dust.

    I love the shot though.

    With his galleons and guns
    Looking for the new world
    In that palace in the sun
    On the shore lay Montezuma
    With his cocoa leaves and pearls

    I'll throw it up for this week, seeing as you're busy. You plan on continuing with it afterwards though, correct?
    i was waiting on a moment, but the moment never came. all the billion other moments, were just slipping all away. i must have been tripping, we're just slipping all away. just ego tripping.
