Have been eyeing this wonderful old beauty for months on my way to work and finally had the time to stop and get some shots at sunrise. Hope I did her justice.

Nice pics. I love the muted colors on the car. A little help though, is that a Studebaker.

I thought it was s Studebaker as well, but others at work said it was a '40 Ford. Guess I should have paid closer attention to the trim work. Still has the dealers sticker on the trunk lid.

Neat old car and nice uncluttered background makes for some awesome shots! The muted colors are perfect for this classic. The second shot is fantastic!
