 Yup.  I loves radiator caps/hood ornaments.

John, these are beautiful...but then everything you do is. My "picks to click" are the side shot of the grille on the 57 Caddy Eldo Biarritz, the headlight with the V12 emblem on what appears to be a 36 or 37 Series 60 Caddy and the beautifully captured motor with copper water jackets in the 1914 Caddy. The inverted photog in the carbide lamp is pretty kool, too, as is the Pierce-Arrow mascot.

Very, very nice stuff. Would ya bleeve I'm still chipping away at the Imperial Palace Auto Collection (biggest indoor classic car sales lot in the world) from my visit last April? I've attached a coupla shots from that collection....a 1948 Cadillac, body by Saoutchik, 2 of the original 4 1954 Dodge FireArrows and Johnny Carson's family's 39 Chrysler Royal sedan.

I'm gonna skip the first day of the BUB bike meet on the salt to shoot the Utah Concours. I loves them old cars.

Thanks for sharing the fotos.
