Default Just dug up some old vacation photos.

These are from a few years ago when I went to San Francisco and Napa Valley. Nothing too special, except for the thing in the last group of pictures.

(Sorry, the lighting sucked, and this was with an ordinary p&s camera)

Its Francis Ford Coppola's personal Tucker. Oh how I really want a Tucker 48 of my own. One day.... I'm gonna save up enough to buy one, and hopefully I'll further down the road I'll buy out the rights to the Tucker Corp. name, and do a limited edition revival.

One can dream.

Great spots! I would love to see a Tucker like that in person.

Alfa Romeo Spider. Last summer I saw two of them within a few blocks of each other in this little town. Gorgeous cars!

^ Yeah, it looks like a boat to me. It would be the ideal car to equip with a propellor.

Well, the pictures you showed are from the second generation with the plastic bumpers (yes, I know the one in the original picture is a 2nd gen Spider) but I think the 1st gen Spider is considerably more beautiful.
