Even the challenge is done just wanted to let you know that there is NO sepia in this picture and NO color effects.
This is how the picture came out from the camera.
Except the crop I didn't do anything.
The color came from the highway lights.
And I thought it's cool since it amplifies the feeling of rust and misery.
If I was trying to change something I was about to be DQ.
I must confess it is rather something forgotten than obsolete.
Hope I will do better in the future.

A BIG THANK YOU for all the helpful comments.

I love the vintage coloring in this! I can almost smell the dust.

IMHO a differnt angle would have made this pic work better for me. Nice use of color in the photo though.

so old. does it work?

Good subject, but I think the colour cast effect is a little overdone and becomes distracting.

Nice, but the orange colour is a bit overdone IMO.

The photo itself is good and fits the challenge, only thing I don't like is the overal bright orange color. I think it would show much starker had you used sepia or B&W. It's just too much, pity. I'll rate it a 6.

I did'nt know motorcycles had become obsolete (maybe in other countries it's different?).

Great title!

Great Title...and the colors go along with it. Good work! Top 3!

Nicely framed photo. Focus just seems a tad soft. Sepia tone is fitting here, but perhaps a little TOO yellow for my liking. Otherwise, well done. Good luck.

Gee, it isn't THAT old, late '80s or early '90s. Good choice of color tint to enhance the "rust" feel.

I love the tones. Great photo but not so obsolete (I could get it running!)

The motorcycle isolated from the very very busy bg would have worked better.
