While Palm Springs is mostly famous for it’s second homes it’s also full of beautiful cars. I’m not talking about all the European luxury cars that are very common in rich areas I’m talking about beautiful american cars from the 60s, 70s and 80s.<\/p>\n

Wonderful cars. Architecture on wheels. Cars from a time before the big oil crises, a time before modern crash tests. Long and elegant with thin and fragile A-pillars and large and thin steering wheels. For me the cars from that era are among the most beautiful man made things.<\/p>\n

I would love to own such a beauty to drive it to a diner on a sunny, late summer sunday evening. Problem is: I do not live in sunny California and in Austria those cars feel out of place. The belong to the USA. To bring them to Europe makes no sense.<\/p>\n

I know that but when I saw this wonderful Lincoln I was lost. I already thought about how to ship it home and to find a good garage to protect it from the elements. What a car!<\/p>\n

Of course I did not buy it despite it’s bargain price. Of course I’m still driving around in fuel economic, modern diesels but I hope that some of those great American cars will survive till the day where I forget about being sensible and just buy one of them.<\/p>\n

In this post I combine images made with 3 different digital cameras with different sensors and different color signatures. Thanks to VSCO film 4 ( Fuji Astia 100 warm ) they look the same. VSCO is an easy way to match their output.<\/p>\n
