Vintage high resolution is cool. Not even sure how that works

A good quality negative film has a better resolution than most 24*36 digital sensors available. You just need a very good negative scanner to benefit from it digitally, very often vintage film photo are scanned from printed pictures or even from magazine prints.



Not a vintage picture but a film photo taken with a 1941 camera and lens, scanned with a good quality 14k scanner:

How fast could these “race” Cruisers really be? Ha. I remember my dad having to pull over and shift our Cruiser into low to make it over a mountain pass because 145 hp wasn’t enough power to pull a lightweight military trailer full of building materials headed across Colorado to our cabin.

These engines had to be modified, right?
