Cars and Coffee 9.27.07 (56K loser)

An interesting turnout today.

I took something over 900 photo's - I got a seriously itchy trigger finger sitting on the sidewalk watching everyone exit stage-left.

I have not directly linked those pics - if you really, really want to see yank muscle burning rubber, checkout the gallery and link up the good ones - there are way too many for me to choose faves - I'll leave it up to you.

http://cncpics.com

Meanwhile this week I figured out how to create a pic that is clickable - if you click the pic you can get to a page for that image and then view it in small/smallish, medium, big, large and mahoosive resolutions.

Yeah - I know - STFU Max and show me the pics already

- you asked for it !

Oh my god.....look at the Skylines!! (where's the drool smiley when you need it). Love the solstice. They are cool cars. I got to drive one last night. Love the eBox. I've read about that xB. It's cool.

Max I really liked the perspective of the cars on the move.

That Lime green Mustang was very very NICE. There's a couple of them around here that sound wild as I imagine that one must have too. The paint job on that Nissan was wild as was the gear shift. And what kind of exhaust was on that Black Beetle that stuck out beyond the bumper?

I am the guy that was sitting in the curb right on the corner - I wanted the low angle.

After a while I got up and moved sllightly towards the straigth bit then wandered home.

The panning shots are killer! That should be part of this c&c theme from now on... really liked the narrative too.
I was checking out the Chevy pickup behind the 3# Jag.

Tell you what - how about this for a deal........

I'll take as many shots as I can each week - or whenever I can go, and you can be my editor.

I'll post the normal 200+ parking lot shots only, then you can pick through the pan and scans and post them up - I find it really hard to post my faves and a single 900 photo post would fry modems across the word

Deal ????

Serious sensory overload. Max, those pics qualify as car ****!

Great looking MGC! Used to have one long ago.

The 49 Merc was cool.

The D-Type..... just insert Homer Simpson's "donut" voice: "Deeeee Tyyype" drool drool.

What's with the ugly white boxy thing?

So was anyone else humming "East bound and down" when they saw the 77 T/A ?? Go Banditt!

I read about the sale of a couple of the KITT 2000 cars from Knight Rider a year or 2 back, I guess that was one of them. As always a super job Max-good to see our own Sideache finishing up the set!
