Cool shot

I stumbled across this cool shot online, probably someone's graduation photo, but awesome truck nonetheless.

Re: Cool shot

I'd love to have the truck, hate to have to take the dent out of the hood. I developed a liking for that style when I saw some all done up at a show for antique trucks a few years ago.

That is indeed a great photo though.

Re: Cool shot

That is an awesome photo. And yes, it is a cool truck.

But I give up. Patina seems to be what everyone wants to see anymore and instead of fighting it I'm just going to embrace it 100%. Anyone willing to take a look at this photo and let me know if everything looks properly aged?

Haha, is that the same girl as in the top photo with a little "patina?"

Re: Cool shot

That lady probably isn't as old as my mom but has had a much harder life I'd think.
