Classic Car Photos
Blurry Classic Car Photos
A blurry car photo is a common case: a slow shutter, a subject who moved, a lens that was never sharp or a camera held by a child leaves soft edges, doubled outlines on faces and hands, and detail that never resolves however close you look, and classic car photos from the 1930s to 1970s were rarely stored well enough to escape it.
Unblur Old Photos is the tool for blurry classic car photos: it targets soft edges, doubled outlines on faces and hands, and detail that never resolves however close you look and leaves the rest of the car photo alone. Output follows the shape of the upload, so the chrome trim, the badge and the license plate end up where they always were in the blurry original.
Scan the blurry car photo flat, or photograph it and run Photo-of-a-Photo Fixer first, so the blur is the only thing left to repair. The classic car photos come back in seconds, and the 4 free credits on sign-up cover the first Standard pass at the blur.

- Blur from a slow shutter, a subject who moved, a lens that was never sharp or a camera held by a child, on classic car photos from the 1930s to 1970s
