1980 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

I find this car delightfully embarrassing.
Apparently it has been the target of some abuse. I spoke to the wife of the owner, who told me that the white stuff in the reverse light is eggshell.

1985 Ford LTD LX

I had not realized that the car you see was kind of special for technical reasons until I looked it up. The blacked out grille and faded red stripe hidden in the side strip should have tipped me off. I hope it is just awaiting restoration under it's guardian motion sensor light.

What with constrained space and steel barrel, I could not get a proper profile, or a shot of the "LTD LX" badge on the trunk lid.

1975 MG MGB

Appears to have been parked where it is for some time, and cleared of debris occasionally. Sad about the damage, but of course that's makes it more interesting.

The shape of that heavy front bumper actually works well in preserving the profile and sporty looks. The rear bumper is good too. That sloping front profile is so classic, and over all the car really was designed beautifully.

1979 Porsche 924

Love the dark huge bubble of a rear window, which gives the illusion that this is a notchback. The circular side marker lights, the shut line of the door which extends into a seam above the window behind it. Suspect the reflector between the tailights is aftermarket. The dynamic curve of the sloping hood is only slightly interrupted by the interface with the windshield.

But even in this car German pragmatism is present -- the functional fuel cap instead of a door to hide it, the almost complete absence of chrome, the simple door pulls, a (minimal) back seat.

1986 GMC Sierra Classic Camper Special

Despite the moss and damp and damage, this truck is still useful. The dents and debris just give it added texture. Missing hubcaps on the passenger side suggest close contact with curbs. Found in the same neighbourhood as this car.
