Cars & Giants
« on: August 12, 2012, 04:34:42 AM »
In this thread, pictures of automobiles juxtaposed with giants - people, animals, and other things that have been rendered large in wood, fiberglass, metal, etc.

If you would like to add some of your own, pictures should be from before 1980.

Well, some of those pics may not meet all of your specifications, but I think they´re worth showing them here  ;)

I think this one fulfills all requirements: there is a car, the photo was taken before 1980 and there certainly is some gigantic stuff in the picture.  ;)

Well, this has gotten completely out-of-hand.

I know just where to find plenty of those, but alas without any automobile in sight and pictures probably taken after 1981.
In the meantime here are three photos that almost meeet the requirements.
- In the first one, there is only a tiny car somewhere , but one hell of a giant.
- In the second one, this lion may not be a giant yet, but will soon grow to be one if this lady continues to water it like this.
- In the third one I can't guarantee the year of the picture, but the truck sure is pre-1981

If you want me to, I´d delete the posters, of course.

I hope I´ll find some more apropriate ones in future... :D
