I've had problems seeing your photos with Safari on IPad. Now I can see the Comet.

Shelby Cobra Light and Grill

GT500 Steering Wheel

Both taken today at a "July 4th" Classic Car Show here in Dahlonega, with my Speed Graphic and 6" Aero Ektar, on Efke 100 dev'd in Pyrocat.

Bryan, nice photos but the first one is a Thunderbird, not a Cobra. The Aero Ektar makes for awesome specular highlights.

Thanks - see below!

Don't listen to him Bryan, it's a Thundercobra.

I mean it doesn't really matter to me either way, I just figured it was what I was told it was. But! I remembered my wife had taken a pic, so I checked...and I made a mistake! There was a Shelby Cobra right next to a Thunderbird, and I didn't realize when I sat on the ground experimenting with compositions on the front end that I had moved over to the T-Bird. My bad.

Did they make a 6” Aero Ektar? I’ve never heard of one. 🤔

**T.Chabry** · 9-Jul-2021, 17:12

It's OK, both the Cobra and the T-Bird are US legends with no rear seats.

The owner of this Duster bought it when it was new and it still looks like a new car.

Yes. I might've mistaken the car but I know which lens I have

. Not as common as the 7".
