[Ham-Computers] Re Reviving Old Photos

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Hello All, 	
	
I have some Polaroid color photos taken in the late sixties and early seventies.
They are important to me and are starting to fade and some colors are no longer
distinct. These are of a full custom street machine I built and displayed at
ISCA car shows. Unusual only because I had lost my sight when I built these two
cars.     	
	
These are the only photographs I know of that exist. Lots of people photographed
the cars, but I have no idea where they are thirty+ years later. 	
	
I know there is computer software that allows the user to restore such
photographs to nearly original quality. Naturally, I can not do this! Perhaps my
daughter could. Can any of you reccomend software that would enable her to save
these images for me?	
	
The computer is a 450 Mhz Pentium #2, 128 Meg of sync D RAM, 10 Gig hard drive
with a 3D Diamond high res graphic card.	
	
She has Professor Franklin's software, but I do not think this will allow her
the techniques she needs to restore these five photos. 	
	
thank you very much for your help and suggestions. Some of you probably think it
is silly, maybe even ridiculous, that a totally blind man wants to save the
photos of a car he built when he could not even see it then. But having beens
ighted until the eve of my eighteenth birthday, I do have a visual recall of
this car. Before it was fully customized. It was, by the way, a 1929 model A
Ford tudor sedan.
