I have taken a lot of nice pictures of my cars over the years but without a doubt this is may favorite.
It is my car in 1969, it is my favorite because it is the earliest and I'm in the picture (seen over the car)
The 55 Chevy was my first car, drove it for 4 years before my grandfather gave me the Barracuda.
I still have the custom bicycle.

Found this last night. My grandmother's 68 barracuda that she bought brand new. Lot's of memories of trips to the mountains. She loved the car and was so disappointed when my grandfather made her set rid of it. Unfortunately, I already had my barracuda and had no place to keep it. It would still be in the family if I had a place to store it back in the early 90's. This is only picture I know of her car.

I owned this 71 Hemi GTX for 28 years, and i always thought that this was the best picture that i took of it, during my ownership.
The trees in the background turning Autumn colors, the sunshine in the background, the side shot of the vehicle, i always liked that photo.

My '71 Dart GT with my buddy John's '63 Dodge 440 getting ready to head out to the 2019 Woodward Dream Cruise.

John and I've been best friends/inseparable since his family moved into our childhood neighborhood in 1970 (when we were 9 years old). We've been through it all together. He's like a brother to me. I pray we can enjoy this hobby together for many more years (we still think and act like we're 16 years old).

Nice looking pair there. What does your friend John have under the hood? You could say that I am partial to 63's and you wouldn't be lying.

Have a couple that I like. Couple of the Dart, one of the Satellite and one of my Dad driving the Satellite and myself driving the Dart. Like the black and white effect on the Dart pics. The Satellite just looks really good in this pic and the Father/Son pic is pretty self explanatory

It is a 383, 4-bbl, pushbutton automatic, PS, (factory?/dealer?) A/C, 8 3/4" 3.23:1 sure-grip car. It has Hedman(?) headers and dual exhaust. 15" X 8" steel wheels with 275-70R15s on the rear, not sure what he has up front. Beautiful black paint with turquoise interior.

My 69 Charger...my 1st car and still have it. 46k miles, basically all stock except for a mild 440 installed in place of the 383-2bbl it came with. Did some amount of bracket racing in the 80's and early 90's before parking when my kids were born 27 years ago. Very consistent mid-12's at about 111. Best of 12.42. Not bad for almost 4300#'s! Still have it in my garage.

This is one of my favourite pictures, taken by HOTROD magazine staff photographer Jacob Davis on the 2018 HOTROD Power tour leaving Darlington Raceway, after another amazing day on the tour.

Me and my buddy Chris drove 3000 miles in 7 days that year.

Here’s my favorite pics just of my Duster.

First two pictures were taken last December on my way home from taking Christmas pics with my wife, just happened to come across this old church and the old store fronts across the road from each other.

I like this pic the best as it was featured in our provincial calendar a few years ago.

This evening at the race track was the first time my car was photographed professionally. I love these pictures!

This one is one of my favorite shots of my 1970 Dart. It was taken on the sand at Daytona Beach Florida in June 2005, after the Hot Rod Power Tour concluded in Kissimmee. I rolled up over 5200 completely trouble free miles in 15 days on what was truly one of the most fun vacations I have ever had. I have so many exceptional memories in that car, hundreds of passes drag racing, nights cruising and street racing, but nothing tops that trip. I don't own the car anymore, but I would love to run the power tour again one day.
