"Couldn't remember what the car behind my cousins and I is. Thought of a Biscayne, Fairlane, some species of Buick. But all I could really decide on was it's early 60's, my guess is 62??"

Its a Mercury Meteor.

BTW - The Impala is a '69... not a '66 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

I'm in the same situation. We have to buy slide scanners.

Great stuff Glenn! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img] </div></div>

Same here. I am going to attempt to photograph them while projected first though.
Awesome Christmas pics. Takes us all way back to fond childhood memories. Thank you.

you can buy inexpensive scanners that accomodate photos and slides for less than $100 dollars. It is worth it. slides are generally much higher resolution than photos, so you can get some real clear hi res photo scans out of them. Many of my original blk/red L78 chevelle digital photos came from original slides. Here is one (check out the cars waiting: some nice Camaros and possibly a S/S Dart...

My best Hi-school buddy bought this slightly &quot;Day-2'd&quot; original '65 SS L-78 locally. Ivy Green, black interior, originally a black vinyl roof (removed), 4-spd 4.11s. Nobody could catch that car. Photographed in my parents driveway Christmas 1969. It was just coincidence that the plate was &quot;RUR 425&quot;. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]





We changed the Muncie in that car that winter in his back yard, outside, on the ground, 20deg, wind blowing. We ran the motor to keep us warm while we unbolted everything. Seemed like the right thing to do at the time. We loved that car. He joined the Navy and drove it to Long Beach, CA from NJ and sold it to another sailor. Never heard from again.
