1960

This vintage 1960 Mercedes, sits covered in dust under the arch of the Bab Zuweila gate. I had seen it yesterday, but couldn't get the shot that I wanted.

I went back today armed with plans of how to shoot it. Taking the photo attracted the attention of the owner, who ran up to us to tell us that the car is for sale (or for sell as the sign reads). I think Scorpionkiss would look damn good cruising around Cairo in a vintage Mercedes, don't you?

The sign above the car reads No parked cars allowed, so naturally, that's where this car would have to be parked.
