Whether it’s a “populated center” or a kitschy vintage-vehicle sales strip, Lowell offers a target-rich opportunity to photograph old cars, trucks, and motorcycles.

Azovstal Defender Mykhailo Dianov tells what helped him hold on in 🇷🇺 prison. He is incredibly strong and brave.
This is part of a large interview. He also said that they were given stale bread and 30 seconds to eat it. After that they were forced to get up and run.

Ah, the Edsel. Now there was a “car.”
Tom
The Edsel wasn’t a car, Tom. It was the Titanic on tires — so heavy, so unwieldy, that it got lower (to the ground, not in the water) every year as its springs sagged.

Jim – Sounds like hard experience to me . . .
Tom – I’ll let Jim’s response (which sounds like the voice of bitter experience) speak to this.
Great photos, Isabel. Love those old, heavy, hefty vehicles.
I had an Italian-made car (bought in winter while it was under 8″ of snow — never test drove it!). It was a tank to drive. It pulled so hard to the left, the passenger had to help me keep it going straight. I managed to trade it in for my first brand new car — a Ford Tempo — which (when it finally died) I just walked away from; its hood rusted shut. I left it in a large parking lot on St. Laurent Blvd.
I was so young and foolish.
Barbara – I can just see you and your passenger leaning right, putting your backs into it to keep it going straight. Crazy!
I agree with Jim Taylor. I had my tongue a long way in my cheek when I made my comment. I love the “Titanic on wheels” description.
Tom
Tom – They’re all just cars to me . . . I’m interested only insofar as they look photogenic. Even for that I had to get in pretty close – its overall shape was not lovely.
Loved the VW. My 1st new car in 1957. Deluxe model/leather seats – $1865.00!!!
Corrine – If that was a VW Beetle, here are images. I mean, of course there would be images of the 1957 VW . . .
