Very nice detail and exposure, Walter. The detail looks almost liquid. Very cool. V

Cool shot, Walter. The fins always were the most exciting part of the 50's models.

Wow, what a beautiful car and capture of it! The low wide angle is perfect for emphasizing those great tail lights. Hard to believe a $3,500 car is now selling for $125,000! V.

Great capture! It's hard to frame a pic in the museum without having something unwanted in the background.

1957 was a great year. (Maybe because I was born then?.)...B.

Nice angle Walter. It would take a large chunk of the cost price to fill the tank these days. ~v~

I think one could fit a surfboard in there -- or most anything else.
Nice low-angle perspective showing off the straightness & gleaming chrome.
Don't think it Nomad little sister is jealous however : ))
