That’s a tree trunk, not a creepy dude behind the wheel.
A few months ago, this car showed up on the street just around the corner from my house. It hasn’t moved much, but I can tell it’s driven from time to time. I’d like to meet the owner one of these days and talk to him more about it. In a way, it’s ironic that this classic piece of American steel sits unmolested for weeks, when the family next door to us had their ’90-something Integra stolen right from their driveway on Friday night. Yeah, the neighborhood is going downhill fast. Anyway, I decided to capture this Galaxie last week on my way home from the store. I hope you enjoy.
We’re not playing Where’s Waldo like we do with olelongrooffan’s Comanche; I’m just trying to get a decent shot! This is one of my favorite Galaxies; it’s just the right size, and the proportions are good.
Maybe I’m showing my red neck a little, but I think the white trunk lid against the blue fenders isn’t half bad.
This is a terrible shot, but I wanted to include pictures of all four corners. Also, this shows you how the lighting can change so quickly here, and with a damp street, the glare can kill a decent picture. We need to start a buy Marcal a less crappy camera fund.
Over to you: what do you think of this Galaxie? Would you drive it?
