Black & White Photography

[Sixty8panther]

I'm kind of sick of word association, we've beaten that horse to death.

Let's do some B&W photography. (or artwork)

I'l start off with three:

Here goes:

LA back in the old days...I love pre-1960 pics of LA

It's kinda sad to look at these pictures...so much optimism back in those days.

[K.C.]

I made a B&W photo of my Vette.

Behold, my vast fortune in Canadian currency...a whopping $16.35!

Swimming Pool. . . .MOVIE STARS!

Is this one acceptable?

Sorry bored and tired.

[Intrepidation]

It's classified as artistic so technically yes.

[balthazar]

Uh-oh: smallchevy opened the door to "art pics" !

Man Balthy, I made sure if it was an art, and DF said it was. I was trying to appreciate genuine black and white photos.

Oh when I first read the title of the Forum I read it as Black and White Pornography. I was like AULLRIGHTYYY THEN!!

That is "Black and White" Photography.

[Sixty8panther]

You people are boring. :snore:

[VenSeattle]

He has that song you know...

[Camino LS6]

Glad he wasn't around then...

[Camino LS6]

And just to be scary...

[Robert Hall]

I haven't done it in a while, but I used to take 35mm B&W photos...I remember taking a roll of pics around the U of Michigan campus when I was there in the mid '90s...B&W instantly makes a scene look older, I think...interesting to play around with, esp. winter shots.

[Sixty8panther]

LOL @ Camino Jr. with Rambler wagon.

As far as the other one, it was the 1980s, that was metal hair.

Speaking of the 1980s:

[knightfan26917]

Sixty8 ... love those photos of the Plymouth going into the time capsule in 1957...very interesting.

And, that "artistic one" has one nice gal in it .

[Camino LS6]

That was no Rambler.

[Camino LS6]

It's not B&W, but here's another shot of that wagon with a Jeep:

I was going to put that to make 68 mad .

My reply

[Sixty8panther]

That's right, of course it's a LARK.

Speaking of Studebaker wagons:

808 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts: Peter Fuller Cadillac-Oldsmobile. My 1967 Eldorado was one of the last new vehicles to ever grace the floor of its marble-lined showroom as it shut its doors forever the following year. It now belongs to Boston University which uses the opulent showroom for guest speakers and art exhibits, with space for offices upstairs. Across the street and out of view stands 855 Commonwealth Avenue, the former home of Fuller's rival, Noyes Buick. This building is also owned by Boston University (purchased in 1958) and houses their Arts & Sciences department.

And for those of you that may be curious, the dealership in my signature is Scuncio Chevrolet in Greenville, Rhode Island, which sold a fair amount of COPOs and other special GM cars from the muscle era.

Anybody else have any old dealership photos from their neck of the woods?

A very rare & gorgeous 1961 Cadillac 4-dr hardtop "flattop" (four window sedan)

'32 Peerless

[Sixty8panther]

'32 Peerless

Where? There's no image.

But I'm assuming you are talking about the 1932 concept that was V-16 powered!

[XP715]

Umm, it works fine.....

Here's a 1910 Simplex for you all too!

[Sixty8panther]

I see no Peerless and I see no Simplex but then again our computers

at work here are crap... Lucky we are not still using those 1980s

green screen IBMs they advertised on Dallas BEFORE it was a re-run.

I'm almost kidding.

Kamikaze Mitsubishi Zero...

(I'm posting this from a Mitsubishi Showroom for extra irony!)

[XP715]

This photograph alone is enough to make me want a 1958 DeSoto. Why aren't manufacturers making photographs like this anymore?!

[Camino LS6]

Looks like my earlier pics got lost in the move, so here are some replacements.

[gmpartsgirl]

I finally found one photo on another site of an old Tulsa dealer. We had a lot of great downtown dealerships housed in 4-5 story buildings. I wish I could find some pics of those.

[wildcat]

Wow! A classic beauty - the car and the woman.

[Oracle of Delphi]

Some pics from Europe!
