Thanks by the way my first car I bought in 1965 was a 64 Polara 500 426sw 4 speed. Loved that car and it was pretty fast set up right. Wished I never sold it but bought a brand new 67 Coronet RT 440 727. I think the 426sw was faster!

Love those night shots. cool.

Location scouting mission for a more professional photo shoot. I used to work in the area and thought it would be a cool place to take pictures of a car. I wasn't wrong.

The taco truck can stay. Hopefully the Jetta won't be there!

Is this in Seattle? I’f so I don’t think I’ve ever seen this car around which is surprising.

My '69 'Bee that I'm 27 months into a full restoration on. My father bought it new as our family car and I bought it from him when I was 18.. that was 1980 ! Put 45,000 miles on it in 3 summer and then put it away after getting married in it in 1982. Got it back out in 1988 and had it painted. Put it away again, in a marine container, 16 years ago and then pulled it back out to restore Fall of 2014 as a distraction with one of my daughters fighting a 6 year Ewing's Sarcoma battle.. with us losing her in Aug / 15 at 30 years old. Is what drives me to finish this car and every component on it. Paint is solvent based House of Kolor HOK-403, which is just a bit darker than B5. 4 coats of blue, one clear.. interfaced and then two more coats of clear to cut and buff once I have her all back together.

My 69 Coronet R/T, 440 Sixpack (lift Off Hood Clone) that I regretfully sold to keep the wife happy. Now an ex-wife & I should have kept the car, damn..... I liked the red on red interior.
