Lilac time
'Warble me now, for joy of Lilac-time...' - Walt Whitman
This lilac car has been parked for several days now outside this seafood restaurant near to the sea and the market and it attracts quite a lot of attention. I wasn't the only one taking a photograph. I've seen other old cars in the same place so perhaps the restaurant owner collects them?
Whow! Not only the colour is great... what a beautifull, beautifull model! I guess it's fitting perfect in the pink-yellow-orange-blue Menton!
ReplyDeletevery beautiful and eye catching car!
ReplyDeleteWell, Jilly, don't be shy! Find that owner so you can go for a spin. Would love to join you in this spectacular automobile!
ReplyDeletelol @ kate! :-D
ReplyDeleteOf course you'd have to really get in character before you take a spin!
It is an interesting car.
Fantastic car! Reminds one of the car from the music group ZZ Top's videos (except this one is purple and theirs was yellow).
ReplyDeleteGreat photo.
Fun car!
ReplyDeleteI would love a car like that - great advertisement for your business.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was going to be a photo of flowers when i saw the heading.
What a distinctive color! What a distinctive car, too.
ReplyDeleteThat's just a little rip-snorter, Jilly.
ReplyDeleteStuff from the past can make one feel quite mellow, n'est-ce pas.
I love it! My husband used to work for a guy who collected cars - new and antique. How very interesting this one is. . . .
ReplyDeleteI have a picture of that exact car from 1997. I guess the owner still ahs it in Menton!
