A somewhat older Chevy Pickup Truck has recently begun to inhabit our neigbourhood. I don't know trucks or how old it is, but it is in great condition and is still a working truck.

My neighbors' old chevy. This is a beautiful car and is in great shape inside and out. It was his fathers' car who purchased it new and gave it to his son as a gift. And those 'chevrolet' hubcaps are awesome!
A normal and a mostly desaturated photo of a poor, old 58 Chevy. I desaturated everything else but only partly desaturated the car, which is in Comments. I don't know which one I like best.

Nothing like fancy rear lights and fins to say "Look at me!" Love the beautiful cars of this era....too bad they don't make them like this anymore.

The Chevrolet Volt is a plug-in series hybrid vehicle to be produced by General Motors, expected to be launched as a 2011 model with production currently slated to begin in 2010. The Volt's propulsion system will be based on GM's new E-Flex platform.
Unlike current commercially available hybrids, the actual propulsion of the Volt is accomplished by the electric motor, as the internal combustion engine (ICE) is not mechanically connected to the wheels. With fully charged batteries, this electric power may be sourced exclusively from its onboard lithium-ion batteries, for up to 40 miles (64 km), a distance capable of satisfying the daily commute of 75% of Americans, which averages around 33 miles (53 km).
After 40 miles (64 km), the range of the Volt will need to be extended through the use of a small 4-cylinder ICE which drives a 53 kW generator. The electrical power from the generator is then sent to either the electric motor or the batteries, depending on the state of charge (SOC) of the battery pack and the power demanded at the wheels. The distribution is controlled by the electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle. This effectively extends the Volt's potential range to as much as 640 miles (1,030 km) on a single tank of fuel (which could be potentially extended for longer trips through conventional refueling).
The Volt's 16 kWh lithium-ion battery pack can also be fully charged (technically ~85% SOC) by plugging the car into a 120-240VAC residential electrical outlet using the provided SAE J1772 compliant charging cord. No external charging station will be required.

This body style was used for the 1966-67 Chevy II models. The two parallel horizontal grille strips just below the headlight centerline indicates 1967 as the model year although it appears that some parts of the grille have been painted.
Love these old american trucks. This one was at Cambersands. Already got ideas as this for a print. Processed in Lightroom cc adding extra grain and faded look.
My drive home was quite interesting on this day! Not only did I encounter a bad accident, I also experienced for the first time a drive-thru car show :)!
'57 Chevy is a nickname of the 1957 Chevrolet made in America from late 1956 through much of 1957 by General Motors. It is one of many now-classic cars adored by millions of people. These cars are being restored to their original condition or modified according to personal tastes. As this car gets older it becomes more sought after by collectors than ever before. Its image has been frequently used in toys, graphics, music, movies and television. The '57 Chevy is an icon of the era that endures today.
