Description
David Hill has traveled the main streets and back roads of Maine to photograph beautiful and largely forgotten cars from the "golden age" of America's love affair with the automobile. But beautiful to David's eye is not always fresh paint and polished chrome, rather cars and trucks with stories to tell and histories to share; cars with rust and trucks with scars that reveal small bits and pieces of their decades-long journeys. David always keeps his eyes open, wondering what he might find alongside the road, behind the next barn, or hidden in the trees. Complete with gorgeous photography and personal essays, Full Service chronicles David's journey back to the past to give these worn and weathered pieces of Americana a chance to be seen as beautiful one last time.
