Driving on the outskirts of Eugene, Oregon, I came upon this "antique." It seemed to be smiling wide and showing me it's three remaining teeth. : ) Shot was processed with tone mapping & HDR software using a single RAW file.

What a great image! This car really has character and the processing you did on it really adds to its charm.

This is indeed a great nostalgic capture. I can guarentee you, a vehicle made now adays found years and years from now, won't have hardly anything left to it unlike this old Ford. They knew how to make them last back then. Excellent picture.

Your title and this image made me laugh out loud. I've never seen a radiator grill with 'teeth' - and that's exactly what they look like. A fun shot and I love the way you've enhanced it. Brilliant!!

wow. That vehicle's got attitude, man... To me it looks like one of them old-timers, sitting on the porch, with his fellows, laughing at the good times past... If you had not manipulated it, or done it in a different (less saturated) direction, it would have been downright creepy. But just like people... You have to look again to see the true nature. very nice.
