 This was parked in front of the post office. I was really going more for the texture in the paint until I saw the interior. That thingy on the steering wheel, the fur dice, a possible 8-track under the dashboard.... I found a beat-up, rolling time capsule.

I thought this might be your new car. lol! Great textures and the interior is such a contrast to the outside. Classic.

I like the texture of the paint also. The inside looks like it is in good shape.

This is too good! It's an old 50's Buick Super with the suicide knob and fuzzy dice. I would guess that the paint was one time a sweet metal flake, which tends to get like this after a lot of weathering. I like the way you composed the shot too, just using part of the car.

love the texture of the paint. Gee I don't understand why my husband removed my fuzzy dice from my new little pickup truck. He didn't like driving my truck with the dice in it. LOL
