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.
