Great night to shoot

60 degrees, no wind, nice sunset. Highlights, a 22, 23 and a 24 (in that order) from the 24 yard line. This Mr. Norm's Charger R/T was out front when I left. Mr Norm was a famous Dodge dealer in the city in the 60s and 70s, he was the largest high performance Dodge dealer in the country. The Grand Spaulding Dodge fleet department became so large that it supplied all of the Chicago Police Department cars, as well as the Illinois Secretary of State, Illinois Department of Transportation and many other municipalities. Also, special orders of police pursuit vehicles equipped with 440 Magnum V8 engines were dyno tuned for maximum power. Many of these vehicles were seen in the film the "Blues Brothers" starring Dan Akroyd and the late John Belushi.
