Hello and thank you so much for this second place, which brightens my day, dear @monochromes team!!!... That's a photo I loved taking, and it's a very interesting car!... But the correct title for the photo is "Man looking and car looking too... / Hombre que mira y auto que también mira..." 😄 Anyway, my dear team, I always appreciate the recognition of my photographic work and the fact that you're here at #Monomad with us!... A huge round of applause also for all our talented photographers here! 👏

Oh boy, here we go again..
It looks like I have a thing to screw up your photographs titles. 😅
I copy/pasted the title from the image above instead of the one I selected.
I apologise for that. Fixed. 🙏

😄 Oh no, don't worry my dear team 🙏, on the contrary, I even love these interactions here!!!... Thank you for correcting the photo title!... It's a very special car; its owners were a grandfather, his son, and currently the grandson of the first owner! (The one in the photo is the father of the current owner; he gave it to his son.) Here in this town, there are a lot of beautiful little stories, and I like to use #Hive as a kind of "vault" for them to remain... You are an important part of that, thank you always...

It looks like that car is some sort of family jewel.
And thanks for telling us that and other stories.
You're a master when it comes to imortalize those with your photography and writing. 📸✒️

Estefan (the son and current owner) says it's more like having a "ugly grumpy old mule" 😁, but it never gets seriously broken down!

In one of my previous posts, he appears with the car seen from behind!

They even use it as a pickup truck to transport woodworking and blacksmithing equipment! That's how indestructible this old thing is! 😄

And that's it, I won't go on any longer, I'm taking up the whole comments section!... It's no wonder everyone at home says I talk too much! 😂 I apologize 🙏, but it's nice to share all of that!

Thanks again, dear @monochromes team, greetings from Montalbán!

I remember that shot very well.
Those oldies were built to last.
And don't apologize for taking up the comments section. Things can get quite monotonous around here, as you surely know.
Cheers!
