    So where are these cars now, Murilee? Because you know they are still lurking around Alameda somewhere. Probably not DOTS but in the garages somewhere... #photography

    I can identify the first four, but the 5th has me stumped.

    - #1: a 1949 -1951 Ford Club Coupe
    - #2: a 1935 Hudson Terraplane Sedan. I can't identify the coupe in the background.
    - #3: a 1940 Packard Formal Sedan
    - #4: This one was easy, as its a 1941 Buick.
    - #5: Are you kidding?... most of the late 30's early 40's two door cars look like this. I have to research it by using the back tire. #photography

    Nobody seems to have noticed that the first car is a green Chrysler Newport. All pinup girls look better in a Newport- it's a proven scientific fact! #photography

    Okay, maybe I missed the memo.

    But growing up in Southern California, there were Hot Rod and Muscle Car gatherings at everywhere on any given weekend in places like Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Long Beach, Manhattan Beach, San Pedro, different parts of San Diego, etc. As a child, my dad took me to all of them. And as I learned to drive, I went to many of them with my buddies. We always went because the coolest cars in California could be found there.

    But the girls? Ummm...no. There were some cuties, as evidenced by the likes pictures 3, 5, 6, and 10 above, but most others were two hundred pound, chain-smoking blobs wearing too-small tube tops and boy shorts to show off their mass of poorly done and poorly thought-out tattoos with raspy voices, a cigarette in their mouths, asking us high school kids if we wanted to have a good time.

    Yeah, no thank you.

    If it was girls you were going for, Hot Import Nights, Import Showoff, etc. were the places to be. The cars weren't to our taste, but every kind of gorgeous girl you think of, from leggy blondes, tall and beautiful African American women, and cute-sexy little Asian models could be found there. Sure, some of them might have been bitches in real life. But you weren't there to get into relationships. You were just there for a little eye candy. #photography

    Keep all your trailer queens and trailer trash; my heart (and other bits of my body I value highly) STILL belongs to three time NHRA Top Fuel champion Shirley "Don't call me Cha-Cha" Muldowney. These girls make better hood ornaments than top fuel drivers. Bruce Springsteen wrote lyrics about illegal drag racing in rural New Jersey, Shirley Muldowney drove the damned cars! #photography

    Be nice to these girls, or they'll run you down.

    The photos seem to require a lot of processing to get these effects. Lovely work. #photography

    @skaycog: The other galleries are better, but imagine my disappointment when I clicked on the link for the "headlights" gallery.

    I will refrain from judging the women in these photos, lest I be deemed a misogynist, so I'll let you judge them for me.

    But if you say anything disparaging about "Monika" (#5), or the nameless young lady in picture #10, I'll have to un-heart-clicky you. #photography

    My opinion of these females agrees with yours...5 and 10 are easier on the eye. The others are just 'ruff'.

    Did I keep my heart-click? #photography

    Murilee, this must be why we saw you guys driving around the track in the Great Orange Truck that evening. We were the group of dudes pulling the yellow wagon with a cooler full of beer on it around the track, looking for our lost transponder. We wondered why you were so happy. (Other than perhaps the fact that you were three big dudes sharing a bench seat in a standard cab pickup, and maybe you dudes are into that. Don't tell Jonny I said that k?)

    Murilee, I would proudly volunteer the Tunachucker Amazon for camera car duty. And if you have a video camera, you'll pick up the "sewing machine-on-crack" melody of the B20 plant.
