Bruce with a Cannon has some good points too. The only Nikon Film Camera I had, besides a Practika and a Pentax ME-Super was the Nikon F3 professional camera -which was a beaut! Sadly, there aren't that many films around these days in England, as most peeple have gone over to Digital in a big way and prefer to develop their prints with Photoshop rather than dunking your fingers in acetic Acid, Hypo and Bromide (or other exotic developer) in order to produce a Sepia, Ferrotype or Cyanotype print besides the Blue-Black prints from Bromide or using (God Forbid) the C-41 process for eye-swinging colour photos! The the transfer of negatives to yyour enlarger to enlarge, dodge and flash your 'print' before development to get the best out of it - so much better then than today with a click here or there with your mouse whilst using Elements or Photoshop 6 (if your as well-heeled as Rockerfeller) :-D!

Looks like the set for Herbie lol! Seriously, the Beetle Volkswaggon is a good runner - but seeing them together like this in their individualistic colours makes for a great Picture! Nice One!

Oh I don't know! A 'Chevie' is quite a nice car - for the US of A! The trouble with a lot of cars is if you lean on the front of them, they buckle, whether its a Limo or a Thunderbird, they all won't support your weight if you sit, lean or stand on them. Not so the British cars - take the Rolls-Royce or a Jaguar S6 (a nice sporty job), their bonnets don't buckle if you mistreat them like the above...even our humble Ford Fiesta (two years old model) holds up to us leaning on the bonnet or the boot whilst waiting for the Missus to do her weekly shop in ASDA (the English version of Wallmart) Yeah the stack 'em high and wide just like Wallmart being a part of the Wallmart Empire too... Sorry about my beef about the American Car - I had my beliefs shattered when I leaned on my Cousin's Buick and it buckled and I nearly died when it gave way - damn! :-(
