Photo Hunt: Gather











Every year car enthusiasts gather in Adelaide to show of their treasured vintage American cars and Hot Rods. These are just a few. There were literally hundreds. The always rally in Edwardstown at the Castle Plaza Shopping Centre just around the corner from where I live. It is a bit like Reno's Hot August nights, which I went to to about ten years ago. All the more remarkable that there are so many working models. Rather like parts of the Western United States, South Australia has a perfect climate to preserve these cars.

It is hard to believe that they were so modern and fashionable at one time. Just fantastic. I just love some of the detailing and especially the fins.

Great pictures. I love the car shows. During the summer here we have what they call cruise nights and they bring all their classic cars together in a parking lot at least once a month.
