 Now known as a hotrod, this is my son's truck - actually a 1953 Chevy truck and in red! After checking and comparing the 1951 and 1953, there were really no differences and the modification made the differences a moot point anyway. I changed the color because it lessened the glare on the truck from the lights.
Shot in RAW, edited exposure, noise, hue, sharpened, resized for DPC.
