Ivan, great treatment of light and textures.

Ivan -

I agree with Pete and Martin. The K-Gs have a strong following.

Thank you all.

The eufemism is "patina"

Well seen and excellently executed!

The Karmann Ghia always was one of my favourites...

Ivan, this not so much a Volks Wagon as it's a legendary Karmann Ghia. I wish I could buy a new one. I loved mine. Powder Blue convertible with a new custom white top I had made in 1971. What a great car to drive with the top down. Lovely, generous & gorgeous lines.

Jaap, Robert and Ben,

Thank you gentlemen.

Great use of the toning to present this treasure. My Dad had two when I was a kid and I've been a VW devotee ever since.

Best,
Henry

Nice technique. Looks like a very old photo.
