Junkyard Nights: Haunting California's Automotive Graveyards - Paperback

by Troy Paiva (Author)

A vibrant moonlit exploration of junkyards, *Junkyard Nights* revives mid-century cars through photography and reflective essays.

Junkyard Nights is a nocturnal love letter to the ghosts of our automotive past. Follow photographer, Troy Paiva, as he shoots two old school junkyards in California's agricultural heartland by the light of the full moon--wandering among the rusting hulks of space-age wrecks to reanimate their battered, expressive chrome faces and retro-futuristic cockpits with colorful light. His essays not only capture the essence of these desolate industrial landscapes, but also contemplate the place these mid-twentieth-century cars hold in the pantheon of modern ruins. Whether you're a fan of automotive history or creative photography, wandering the junkyard rows by moonlight with Troy is sure to be a mind-bending journey.
