Title: [Theme] Classic Cars
Post by: Almass on April 08, 2016, 11:23:23: Classic Cars and Top end Luxury Cars.

Here is the old time classic Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing 2996 cc - 6 cylinder - 4 Gears Manual
My ex GF had one inherited from her father....but the pics are not from her car.

Yes, you are right, it does fit the image but I cannot remember whether I did this in post or as shot.
I remember, I was shooting with the Leica R lens 90 APO on a Nikon Body...... some Leica lenses do produce magic as you know yourself.

Thank you, Almass.
It's a professional transporter. Shot just after the Techno-Classica fair in Essen, Germany.
Lots of loading and unloading going on.
The size of road going trucks is quite limited in Europe, there fore they use stacking mechanisms to fit more cars.
Looks tight, works obviously well.

Post by: Hugh_3170 on April 13, 2016, 10:06:27: Elsa, Well, well, well ! An old friend.

My dad in NZ had an almost identical car to the one in your image. It was a blue 1955 Dodge Kingsway with a 2 speed powerflyte auto and a small V8. You are right about the handling - it steered more like a boat than a car. It is still in the family, but much the worse for wear. Plymouth, De Soto, and Chrysler sold variations of this car in NZ - mainly to farmers who had to have solid cars to handle the rough outback gravel roads prevalent over there at that time. Beige, blue, black, and green were common colours for this model. Chevrolets and Ford Customlines were also very popular with NZers back then

Thank you for sharing your image - it certainly brings back memories for me.

Well. You had to have a good garage mechanic and spare parts supplier.

But road handling. They were good at it.
Then again, it depends which period you are referring.

No fuss over the Nikon body used.
In fact, we shall even allow Sony, Fuji or any other just like we do within our lovely community :)

Now, may I present to you the following vehicle.
I envisage Harald being the proud owner of this one.
Why Harald? Since Harald is a high-fidelity expert, please note the amplifier for the horn ;D
This way, Harald can notify his wife that he is arriving from work from a fair distance. By doing so, he would allow her to set up the dinner table in time :)

Here are a few from my trusty D200; Mercedes 300 SL, Ferrari 250, Morgan, '62 Corvette, and an E-Type Jaguar. All found at local car shows.

BMW 8**? Made from 89-99, the color does not look contemporary, more like 'Electric Orange' which was introduced with some high powered Ford Focus models (second series ST) at about 2005.
I think 30 years are the common age for going 'classic' but that may vary.
Great color, nice fishy perspective!

My only complaint is one found on other cars as well, the leather strap hold down. That's just a personal dislike that looks out of place and to me like a last minute fix to cover the fact that they forgot to include a latch in the design. OTOH, I know folks that love the looks of the strap. You just can't please everyone. ;D

classic scene
Good document of the 3rd generation Buick Riviera. Few survive anywhere in such good condition.
The model marks the years 1971 to 1973, a period where the styling of American cars...particularly GM cars... underwent a radical shift from pleasing, speed-flavored beauty to a kind of senile, low-class post-modernism.

Very similar to the 1952 Alvis which my father had. The bodies were made by various outside coach builders in those days so although they followed a general style, there were many variations, especially with the soft tops.

I wasn't aware of that. I had always thought that Bentley/Rolls Royce were all produced in house, with them not wanting anyone else mucking about with their cars. Live and learn! ;)

Post by: Seapy on August 25, 2018, 21:45:56: Most of the 'better' cars when chassis were the norm, were produced as a rolling chassis, sometimes with a standard bulkhead and radiator cowling, the body builder did the rest. Sometimes wealthy customers would have a body produced to their own specifications. There were Park Ward, Mulliner, Charlesworth, Tickford and Abbot, off the top of my head and a host more which don't spring to mind right now!

Eventually when chassis became unfashionable and structural bodies replaced them, it became impractical to farm the bodywork out because it had become the basis of the vehicle. The larger constructors absorbed some of the skilled workforce from the hitherto suppliers and took the process in-house.

As a matter of interest Donald Campbell's Bentley which is Bluebird blue, is in a museum not far from here, I thought I had photographs of the front of it but alas only the front bumper, which is an earlier style, late 40's I would guess. I am pretty sure it's a very similar front to the picture above.

OK, I just googled 'donald campbell's bentley images' and the one in the museum is about 1936 style, but still a pretty car, also it picked up on his Land Rover, also in Bluebird blue...

No need for apologies! While I can recognise many classic cars, I can't identify the makes of current cars for love nor money... But then they don't hold any interest for me, they are just bean tins on wheels waiting to be bean tins again.

Hi Peter, this image was shot in 2012 at a very special Silver Arrows exhibition/reunion in the Louwman Museum Den Haag. I visited the museum especially for this exhibition and spent several hours looking for the right angles while patiently waiting to have an unobstructed view to shoot these beautiful cars. The whole series of 28 images (all in b&w) is on my Flickr https://www.flickr.com/photos/lucdeschepper/albums/72157632140971686 (https://www.flickr.com/photos/lucdeschepper/albums/72157632140971686)

It would be great if you can provide a crop of the car mascot or wheel emblem for positive identification (even if blurred)

My guess is based on the car mascot and wheel emblem and the Tokyo location on the proviso that it was an export purchased auto

It has many similarities to the 1934 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 452-D including the running chrome detail on the side and bonnet of the car and of course the shape of the body.

Can you tell if it is a right hand auto? In which case the spare wheel is on the right!

I think we should target the air intakes.

The crop includes the driver and the air intakes. Judging from the direction of their grills, they might be ventilators to let the hot air of the engine room out.

They were very popular with Aussie and Kiwi farmers in the early 1950s due to their solid chassis and robust drive trains that suited them to the poor roads back then. Google "Ford single spinner Australia" for plenty of images. And yes, there are still many being driven on the streets of Havana - so a great choice of nickname.

Nice one Lars, the colours of the car and its surrounding blend beautifully.

Many thanks Luc :)

Nice find with that great looking Zastava - I read on Wikipedia that it has a nickname "Fićo" (from a newspaper comic) and is very popular among young people - cheap and also retro/nostalgia.

Post by: Hugh_3170 on October 07, 2022, 17:46:08: The Ford Consul (Mk II pictured) and its six cylinder siblings in the same body, the Zephyr and the Zodiac were popular in Australia and especially so in New Zealand in the 1950s and 1960s.

The MK II Consul had an engine based on cutting down the 6 cylinder 2,553 cc Zephyr engine to 4 cylinders.

A red Fiat 500, followed by a white Fiat 600

The 600 is the older one (end of fifties), while the 500 is a more recent model (mid 60's), even sporting its original bull bar

Hi Paco, there's a subtle look to the white clothing in your second image.
Almost a hint of tones you sometimes see in IR images.

Was that just the way you chose to do your PP, or is there other magic & Mediterranean sun at work?

They are IR images, look at the filenames, it's a little hidden because there's a malicious space in there: ... Mariai nfrarojo ... (infrarojo is IR in spanish)

Massimo is right on all accounts. It is an infrared image and, I just realized, It has a typo on the name. It should read "puerto de Santa María_infrarrojo" meaning place and kind of image.

It was the d5300 with 830nm filter by the way.

Nice addition to the Jaguars on this page Massimo
The convertible is something special - not sure I've ever seen one.

But the one at the front was sometimes used in black livery by the British police when i was a kid
(and no, I never got to ride in one either!! :P )

And although the jag at 0:50 in this video is being driven by a criminal, you get the general impression

That is an exceptionally nice "snap" Hans. Coincedentally the 356 Speedster is the car we got married in (also a few decades after the car was 'born').
