Back in the Day...........

Good afternoon,
I am having some work done in my garage so I had to pull the cars out to let the guys do their thing.

I Thought I would share this picture from today.

Have a great day.

Cheers,

Sam

Ok you suck!... Just kidding.now that's living the dream! It's unfortunate though that you could only drive one at a time. But if you got 2 more you could have one for each day of the week!

Number 6 was being a b&$@# and wouldn't start so it had to be pushed out.
Here she is all by herself and not with the rest of the family. Dirty and all!

And a group picture just before I moved them back in.

I love the composure of the first picture. Vintage cars (w/ no modern mods), a house that fits the period well, a soft focus, and sepia filtering. Very nice. Love the cars, too.
If it weren't for that darn new vehicle on the left, I would have thought it was a truly old photograph! (okay, the garage door keypad also gives it away...)
You almost have a calendar picture there...

One criticism, you shoulda kept that SUV out of the first picture & that would have looked like a vintage shot! Get workin in photoshop!

Having a collection like that is out of the question for me. I would settle just being your neighbor so I can just say I lived close to that!

Junior supercar, the car is Azure Blue.
I started a new post with some pictures my neighbour took the day I had the cars out.

Have a great evening,

Cheers,

Sam
