This photo is dedicated to Sea Laura. She really likes the color gray.
This is the drivers side of a fabulous old wood beach cruiser wagon.
It looked like it belonged in Ralph Lauren(tm) advertisement.
The gleaming dash of an American icon.
None other then a 1966 Mustang with a good old V8 engine.
That in itself sent shivers down my spine.
There is nothing like a vintage convertible with a V8.
It's owner stood by watching me crouching and studying the car.
Offering to open the door for the dash photo I was after.
So did this one.
While everyone else was trying to take photos of the
entire car I was just after the chrome.
Several owners were intrigued by my "chrome" mission.
Asking if they should make sure it was free of fingerprints.
This was one stylin' wagon.
The paint and chrome on this car was amazing.
This little cutie could have come home with me.
It had it all.
Convertible, chrome and it was a perfect shade of blue.
I tried to get the whole car in a photo, but there were so many
admirers gathered around it.
My day would have been complete if I had arrived on this.
Well, if it were aqua it would have.

O, this post brings back memories of riding in our 1966 (red) Mustang...what a dream it was...back then.
Nice shots! Totally enjoyed this post!!!!!
I love the lines on these old cars. It's almost as if they were designed by artists instead of engineers. I wish current cars would look this classy.
These so remind me
of gentler eras....
I'm an old soul and
cars like this absolutely
make my heart sing.
Love each and every one!
Happy Friday!

These close up shots look great!
And to answer your question... I use paint.net to work with my pictures. You can download it for free. There is no particular program for mosaics..., I just piece them together.
Have a great weekend!

nice post!
Truly, vintage cars are very classic and elegant to look at. When I was young, I remember my grand father have 5 kinds of vintage cars in his home and I made a promise to myself that when I am old enough, I would definitely buy myself one also. Now in my home in Huntington beach, used cars and some vintage cars are my collection. Now, I already have 4 used cars and 3 vintage cars. And I'm looking forward to have more cars soon!
