Been going to this for many years, the turn out was a little less than some past years but the sun was shining, it was in the 70's and a perfect day to cruise to Tombstone with the top down.

Some of the pics I shot today and it was nice to see a decent turn out of C1's, C2'a and C3's instead of all late models. Only generation missing was the C7. Fell in love with the red 61, a very nice car.

Looks like a fun time.

That red 61 is mighty fine, and that Tombstone location is outstanding as well.

I'd like a link to this . I knew nothing about it but, I'd put it on my list of places to visit.
It does look like a nice time as someone said and I have to say : these are excellent pictures ! Really nicely exposed and sharp !

What did you shoot these with? Camera and lens please.

I took those pics that have not been modified in any way other than being downsized to post them here. They were taken with an Olympus E420 DSLR with the standard 14-42 lens that came with the camera. Olympus is well known for their tack sharp lenses at a bargain basement price compared to its competitors. I also had a very expensive Canon DSLR with very expensive lenses and found that the Olympus consistently took sharper and better exposed pics than the Canon did. The amazing thing was the Olympus with two lenses and a very nice add on flash cost less than just one of the Canon lenses cost me. Needless to say I seldom used the Canon stuff after getting the Olympus E420 and sold off all the Canon equipment on ebay.

I was in Tombstone last year.

This is what that same main street usually looks like.

Thanks for the pics. For me, the late model C1's are the nicest sport car ever built. Beautiful cars in an interesting area.
