Well, I'm in Bakersfield, CA this weekend for the annual Hot Rod Reunion. Lots of old cars, trucks and old men all weekend. Shooting MF and 4x5 as well. Rough life, I know.

This is a mid 40's Dodge that has been parked at Benton Hot Springs, CA in the high desert sun for some time..... no rust - and almost no paint on the south facing and horizontal surfaces. Those small bushes in front of the car are probably 20 + years old - it is safe to assume it hasn't been to a drive in movie for some time.... I made this image with a Rodenstock / Linhof Select 150mm lens on my Linhof 4x5. So I don't over tax my feeble brain I use only one film - Ilford FP4 plus - processed in HC-110 - dilution B -
Here is an image of my D90 mule overlooking the Owens Valley east of the Sierra Nevada- it is not that old ('97 Land Rover) - it is not vintage, but still picture worthy - I regularly shoot my images from the roof rack platform. I made this image of the truck while waiting for the light on the rocks directly behind my truck. This is the site where Ansel Adams made his image of a clearing summer rainstorm over Mt. Williamson and boulders.
Here is the image of Mt Williamson I made that day.... I was parked there for about 3.5 hours waiting for the sun position and clouds....
Very nice images Len!
