Dave was nice enough to arrange a little photo trek over to the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills to take some shots of classic Chrysler cars and the museum. Larry, Mike, and Laura also came along and it was a real fun time. Cars arent really my thing and I had never shot them before so I looked at this trek as more of a challenge and opportunity to try some new things. I think I got some good shots and had a great time in the process. Not a bad way to spend a dreary Saturday.

I didnt even pay attention to what automobile this was but I loved the grill and lines and had to photograph it. Im pretty pleased with how this turned out, in fact it may be my favorite shot I took from the entire trek. If anyone happens to know what car this actually is I’d love to know.

You can check this photo out larger, on black and see more photos from Ryan at Ryan Southen Photography. Also check out this slideshow of photos from the Walter P. Chrysler Museum on Flickr

The Walter P. Chrysler Museum is located on the Chrysler Headquarters campus in Auburn Hills. Their web site has a lot of info about the history of Chrysler including this nifty Chrysler Chronology.

  1. I forwarded this to my big brother in Northville, MI. He is a BIG car buff…especially of oldies. He is certain it is a 1934 Chrysler Airflow. He says it went out of production within two years because no one liked the “waterfall” grill……the very thing that is so beautiful to us today.

    Hope this helps.
