Last Christmas I went to a huge Adams retrospective at the Boston MFA. One of the text/graphics dividers between sections contained a huge enlargement of Ansel standing with his 8x10 on the roof platform... of his 1941 Cadillac woody station wagon. No doubt the best and most expensive tool available at the time; from my memory of his autobiography he must have just upgraded from a c.1938 Pontiac woody. I'd love to have either of those cars now, just not for off-road work.
