Drag Show
Las Vegas Motor Speedway NHRA Four-Wide Nationals. One of these cars reached a speed of 353.73mph in 3.697 seconds in these 11,000 horsepower dragsters. The sound of 44,000 horsepower lasting less than 4 seconds actually causes pressure on your chest.

Snowblower Train
The fleet of maintenance machinery that keeps our nation’s railways and roadways clear comprises some of the coolest machines out there today. The Union Pacific Railroad’s three rotary snowplows are no exception. Built in the 1920s, the rotary snow plows originally ran on steam, but were converted to diesel in the 1950s.

Harry Miller 1875-1943
His engines dominated American oval-track racing for almost half a century. Most of the speed records which there were to be had on land and water were held at one time or another by those engines. He created the school of American thoroughbred engine design, which was faithfully followed by those who sought to outdo him. He was the originator, in the United States, of the racing car as an art object. He had a passion for metalwork and machinery that soared above and beyond all practical consideration.

I took a ride
Man in green shirt owned the car and when I took the photo he asked if I wanted a ride around Havana. We climbed in with him in the back seat and other fellow drove. He explained he'd lost his license due to drunk driving so his friend drove. Car was beautiful but only ran and stayed together with car love.

Where she stops, nobody knows. State Fair ferris wheel with a 2 second shutter opening.

1920s Rumely Oil Pull Tractors
At a steam engine show in Wisconsin I came across this small tractor using a belt to start the larger tractor. It did start with lots of noise and thick black smoke.

His presidential limousine on display (and driven daily) at Harry Trumans "Little Whitehouse" in Key West.

Riverside Special
The 'Riverside Special' was built in Appleton WI in 1932 to compete in the Indy 500. Race rules required a seat for a driver and mechanic. As a daily driver it was well known in town for outrunning the local Police. I took this last summer at the annual gathering of old Indy 500 racers at the Milwaukee Mile track.

Nevada Northern No.40
Built in July 1910 for the Northern Nevada Railway in Ely Nevada. Here in Ely it is undergoing a boiler inspection and overhaul and completely rebuilding its running gear and tender.

Middle of nowhere Nevada in an area called Nelson there is a collection of old vehicles. Not worth much except for taking pictures.

City of old cars
Havana...and they are everywhere. Once a month there is a car show in Havana. Because of the Cubans infatuation (and mine) with cars, I would love to be there for one.

Wooden Wheels
Were in better shape than the rest of the car.

Santiago
Santiago de Cuba is the capital of Cuba's southeastern Santiago de Cuba Province, facing a bay off the Caribbean Sea. Founded by the Spanish in 1515, it's known for colonial architecture and revolutionary history.

There's a place in Nevada full of old cars, trucks and just... stuff. Just great to walk around with a camera.

Classy Caroline’s
Rare to see a car of this caliber in Key West much less parked on Duval street and not between other cars is a photo op miracle.

Car Art
Back when style really meant something.

The Apex
With the right light, angle and color these large ships create quite the contrast against water, sky and land.
