Great photo, Paul. I remember seeing a few of them (and Superbirds) around town as a car-crazy kid (I was around 13). They looked like spaceships!

Two days of rain. Good weather only this morning, but managed to shoot enough cars, some in the gloom. Among the 1000 or more cars were several perfectly restored 1971 Dodge Daytonas. I shot two of them for the mag. They were perfect restorations in that they included flaws that were common to these cars when new: ill-fitting nose pieces, excess glue in seams, wing finish that didn't exactly match the car's finish, etc. The Daytonas and their Plymouth twins were hastily thrown together in order to produce enough street versions to make the race version eligible for Nascar competition. They sold for about $4500. today, their worth twenty to thirty times that, even more if their flaws have been flawlessly restored. This doesn't show the car very well, but it's my favorite. I may post a profile view when I have time. http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=16283572&size=lg -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
