Max was busy today. Check out all the pictures at cncpics.com.

Anyone guess what the 2 primary themes in the photo selection process was for todays pictures?

Enjoy!

Classic coupes? Great pics as always Max. Was that a Pinto with the red flames near the end?

kenchan,

Yes, the Pinto was interesting. I imagine it is a monster to drive.

Your working on it, look at the type of cars as they are presented in Max's post. Two themes are pretty obvious, a third theme lurks, too.

A few more guesses and I will tell you my themes, of course what is obvious to me may not be obvious to you or to MAX, but he indulged my selection criteria this time.

Keep thinking, not near the mark. Thinking cars is right.

Or maybe chrome bumpers.

Most of them are muscle cars/ fast cars.

Well, here are the themes I was looking to get from the viewers.

Convertibles and Tail shots (pictures of the cars from the rear as they drive away from C&C).

The last set of pictures were of some of the more unusual cars at the C&C.

I like the Cobra and love this old sled, the Chrome is pure pleasure, I drove a Desoto of the same year but it was not as nice, way back when.

Once again thanks for sharing those great pictures.

I loved the Fiat Dino. I haven't seen one of those for 35 years or so.

Nice to check out your pictures.
The overcast sure helps reduce the contrast.

Thank you again Max for taking so many photos and sharing the wealth with us. I look forward to your threads from each meet. A personal request: would you get some shots of '40 Fords, if those happen to be around? I've always loved the style of that car, be it in stock form, or dolled up via the rodder route. Thanks!
