A lot of people have asked why I don't have any advertising.
Two reasons,
1) I don't like car insurance
2) I'm not selling out my clean and straightforward blog for less than an annual income I can live off of
I was just informed by some Image Space Media - "Image Space Media, the nation's leading In-Image ad network." - that they can make me alot of money. - "Now serving display banner + rich media ads Ads served through our partnership with AOL + ISM's direct advertisers = bigger payouts!"
Any guesses how much they figure my blog of about 500,000 annual page views will make me in a year?
one penny per thousand hits. Thirty bucks a year. THAT is not worth all the clutter of stupid ads no one is interested in looking at
This photo, from 1907, was probably the first color photo of a car. It was photographed by Jean-Baptiste Tournassoud using the Autochrome Lumiar process. The Lumière brothers patented the process in 1903 and was the most used for color photographic records until the mid 30's. The car seems to be a picture of Peugeot 116.
Not very good taste in floor mats though. If you look at cool steering wheels, and think, wow, they used to design them really well! 
Isn't that the worst looking install you've seen yet? 
BIG signs!
Gauges? We don't need no stinking gauges!
well, it can't be easy to find the right window handles...
excellent set of gauges!
Willys Whippet badge, rare. Finding it on this hot rod, cool.
Love the above gauge pods
Good place for a tach!
Cool trunk!
That all the colored inserts are carved with flames has me thinking that they are all aftermarket
How unsual, Essex headlights on a hot rod!
Some really fundamental early hot rod pieces... basic scallop, wire rims
Pinstriping on this lever panel is sweet!
Lincoln dash is just huge... not a good proportion though
Wow. Never thought that a car like the above would have a blower.. that's a Caddy I believe
Two cool Mercs
I've no idea what Y.M.I. Los Angeles is about... anyone know?
