Nice shot... and I would also like to see some more if available.
I like the Edsel -very cool design. From what I have learned there were a lot of quality issues with the Edsel and that was one of the main reasons for failing.
Not to forget that almost every car company had falling sales during 1958 :(

^^ I think I know what Todd is aming for... :wink:
Hope you find them and get some beautiful night shots!

Yes Todd!
I was out riding and stumbled onto this.
These are very accessible, 10 foot walk from the curb.Nothing in the background that cant be shopped out. Take a saw with ya and cut the weed down from behind the station wagon and you can get the old courthouse in the background

Here are a few others, no processing.

Awesome. Do you have any more shots showing the environment? Are these accessible to anyone? Do you think these would be shootable at night?

Uh OH. I sense a project coming up. ;)

A couple of closeups of abandoned cars near St. Johns, Az. The first pic shows them in context with the abandoned house where they are located.

I shot this 70's Porsche 914 on my old Canon SD1000 back before I had a 60D. I thought I would bring it back to life. :twisted:

Those shots make me pretty sad. Here's my old Porsche 914.

Pretty sad to see them abandoned like that, but this "is" the right thread for that. ;)
The car is an old mid sixties Mercury. Monterey I think, or something like that. Did you know the back window could be rolled down? :lol:

I thought the Montclair had the chrome stip running all the way down the side above the rear wheel well. I would have guessed that this is the Monterey as Ballen Photo mentioned.

Of course, at my age, memory is kind of foggy.
