Every Friday afternoon and evening from May to September; downtown Escondido, California is transformed into a living museum of automotive history. Spectators can view static displays of American automobiles and trucks from the pre-1974 era or be thrilled by the throaty roar of big V-8 engines, built during the heyday of the great American muscle cars.

    Great car shots in that gallery - nice color and nice even exposures. I am an older car buff myself and you have some beauties there.

    It always makes me chuckle to see what the kids in school today are "supeing" up - Honda Civics and the sort. ne_nau.gif

    Thank you for visiting my gallery. I have visited yours and fell in love with your "Howling Wolves" image. I had a wonderful German Shepherd - Golden retriever - Wolf hybrid for over ten years and she caused me to love and respect wolves.

    By the way, you have initiated a new crossbreed Down Under - the labradoodle. Part Labrador retriever and part poodle.

    hehe The bigger the better?. 454 bigblocks with the innnsaaane engine displacement. 7 liters or more ( yes we do it in metric in sweden xD ). These cars would never see the daylight if the world population wasn´t so stupid so we are ruin our own home with polution. Anyways im not gonna lie. I love it haha.

    Torque. Turbosqeels, smoking tires and nice polished superdeep paintjobs <3.

    The life as a car enthusiast may be hard to understand for some, But they probably never have experienced it or can´t se the beauty in it.

    Thanx for sharing, can´t wait until the summer now! <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/clap.gif" border="0" alt="" >clap

    Maby i will reconsider to get that Nissan skyline R34 gtr after all....Or no =)
