    The very words "Deardorff V8" and "Stealth" just don't jive, IMHO

    What's more amazing is that he actually received a camera ordered from Barry Cochran.

    As I recollect(hah) There was a black V-8 made for one of DD's employees just before they shut down the original business.

    Wow... that is gorgeous. I think I like it with the chrome hardware. "Stealth"? As compared to what... a 20x24?

    During WWII Ansco Agfa made their cameras in what they called 'piano finish' which was really really beautiful but as the war dragged on they painted the cameras as it was easier/cheaper/faster than finishing the wood the other way.
