1977 Chevrolet Silverado Shortbox

You can just make out the spider that has built it's web by a headlight -- proof of the stationary nature of this truck. That and last year's tags.

That single new looking wheel -- perhaps sanded and re-painted, or a new replacement for a hopelessly rusted one. The dual gas doors imply dual gas tanks. The matte painted sections suggest this is a hipster type project. So do the artfully rusty doors.

What really gets me are the overall proportions due to the short load bed. There's just something about that profile.

1977 Cadillac Sedan de Ville

I guess Cadillacs of the 70s just don't have their headlights firmly mounted. Love the vast expanse of the hood, with the large elevated section -- shrunken compared to predecessors but still present, like some inherited glandular condition. And it still has vestigial fins, 15 years after they went out of style.

Nice eroded paint on the hood and grille surround. Turn indicators actually do look elegant, as do the shapes of the wheel wells. Unlike many full sized GM vehicles of the era, the wheels & tires don't look too small for the car.

Another vehicle missing passenger side hubcaps.
