I cleaned the car today and had to go out and get some pics. Let me know what you think and how they could be better, thanks.

I wish the tree wasn't poking out in the trunk area.

Thanks guys, the ralleys are 7 or 8 up front and 10 in the rear. The paint is Famthom Blue and I plan on putting the white letters out when I get some MT's.

Me too, oh and turn the headlights off. Other than that, the only thing I would change would be to give it to me. ;) No...ok...I tried.

Nice car, Beautiful.:thumbsup: Pictures look good but on the lower angle ones I would try & get the 4th tire to show, I just think it looks better.

Nice car Zach! :thumbsup:
Do you have one headlight (driverside) burned out or is that the photo angle?

Thanks everyone, Bill, that's just the angle of the pic.

Car looks great. Pix look great too. I would try using a ladder and get some pix from above.
Something like this.

Personally I think Zach's low angles look much nicer. The ladder trick works nice when you are photographing a group, but in my opinion for a single car Zach got it about perfect. Nice work!!!!:thumbsup:

I agree with trying to get the 4th tire in the pics. :)

If there are any hills around where you can safely take a picture, it always looks good when you can take the picture looking uphill so that there is only road and sky, with no trees or other distractions in them...

High angle/ladder photos can look great too, but it has to be in an open paved parking lot with no lines or shadows to really work well.

Also, sunset/sunrise pics work well to show the true color of the car.

Zach, I like the low angle sometimes, but in this case the apparent downward angle and camber of the road are taking away from the shot. You also need to photoshop out the tires' inside-facing white letters that are visible from the lower angles. Other than those two things, I like the pics and the car. My car was that color originally. :thumbsup:

Thanks, I'll try and get some more tomorrow if the weather is good. I see what ya'll mean about getting the 4th wheel in the shot, it will look more realistic.

try find a spot where buildings arent in the reflection on the car. i can only really see a building (or looks like one) in the 4th pic, so just an idea. nice car tho!

And just remember that Photoshop can be your best friend for removing inappropriate distractions from your image. Like bad reflections, the trees sticking out of the trunk or the inward facing white letters on the tires. Careful planning of your shots can eliminate most of these problems, but sometimes these things can't be helped. And since they detract from the shot, they should be removed.
Very nice car though. Looks great!

Looks great, if I had the change anything. I would probably lower it a few inches but thats about it.

I would remove the vertical grille trim! Since you are going for the SS look, anyway. Also agree with white letters out.

Face the white letters out on the tires.
Raise up some on the viewing angle. We'd rather see the stripes and cowl bump and not so much the steering linkage and sway bar.
Adjust the visible reflection on the side panel to be the horizon and not the house. That may require finding a new spot.


Just trying' to help. :)

Car looks bad ass. :cool:
