RE: OT Blastolene Bertha
From: Larry Colen Unfortunately between being backlit, there not being any room on the window side, and the car being quite dusty, the pictures didn't turn out well enough for a geso. However, I figured that the gearheads would appreciate the car. This is one of my favorite hotrods. Note that Mariah, my friend in a couple of the shots for scale, is six feet tall. A fun trivia quiz for the motorheads is to figure out what Bertha was before she was turned into a hotrod. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157623093266803/ More snapshot quality pictures of the car, showing some more fun details at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157623217820218/ If memory serves it was a fire truck chassis. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

OT Blastolene Bertha
Unfortunately between being backlit, there not being any room on the window side, and the car being quite dusty, the pictures didn't turn out well enough for a geso. However, I figured that the gearheads would appreciate the car. This is one of my favorite hotrods. Note that Mariah, my friend in a couple of the shots for scale, is six feet tall.
