That kinda reminds me of the car that SLY Stallone drove in the movie COBRA ( except for the color that is)...think the license plate was awesome 50 ...somethin' like that!

Just love the classics.
Keep em coming.

Wow....look at those cars :D Have I told you that I'm addicted to the combination of sunshine,
metallic and the camera? heh Give me a clean car, some sun and you can pick me up a few hours
later :p

Great shots, Kort.

Okay, I'll keep posting photos then. Here is one I'm sure we wouldn't all mind owning. The driver sure looks like he was having fun. BTW, these shots were taken during a very limited span of time close to sunset so the lighting was not optimal. Also, there were a lot of people so I took what shots I could even if one or two people were obscuring parts of the cars. The show starting around 4PM, then after the prizes were announced, most of the cars formed a parade and drove around the town square. It was noise good fun! 😄 I'll post more later, the boss wants me to get back to work for some reason.

But thankies. It's great and it's red which doesn't make it worse :biggrin:
I need to look into if there's any car shows with old cars around here during the summer...if
it can stop raining long enough that is :rolleyes:

croxie ( ) posted Tue, 18 April 2006 at 8:54 AM

Hmm....I will always associate Belair (the car) with Stephen Kings book "Christine" :)

I've got plans to walk in to one of the car dealers over here (preferably one who sell BMW
or Mercedese...hmmm...that spelling doesn't look right) and have a chat with the manager
and ask if they would allow me to roam around with the camera during a sunny day :)
I'm not comfy walking around among cars like that without a permission. They might think
I'm planning on coming back during the night and steal them :p

As for rain, if nothing else the camera won't like it. And who knows....I might melt too :tongue1:

Okay, here is one last group for now. This is the rear end of the Impala previously posted. My grandparents owned 2 of these cars. I can't help think that all of George Lucas' work on American Graffiti influenced him in his Star Wars movies. This tail end of the car looks suspiciously to me like a squished Darth Vader. :biggrin:

Great pics. Kort - this year I want to get some car pics. I did a few last year, not very good, so want to try again.  I've not got the equipment for moving cars, which is a pity because there is a race track quite near, so for now it will have to be parked cars. 

Christa I was thinking of going to a dealers and asking for permision to photograph :) I have a couple near me in mind, like you I thought it best to ask permision first.

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---

The classic '57 Chevy Bel Air... No car show is complete unless a 57 Bel Air or a 32 Deuce Coupe shows up.... :-)

The hood on that Merc looks like it's been stretched... perhaps a Viper V10 is lurking under the bonnet...????

Yeah, I think it's a good idea to ask first. It's one thing when you take piccies during shows like
Kort done here (they're all great, Kort!) since that's a public event, but to sneak in to a dealer and
begin to take shots of their spanking new BMW's or whatever they have in store without asking
first is not the same thing. I'm also going to make sure that every salesman in the store knows
that I'm allowed to. Otherwise there's going to be a million questions about it...and they would
most likely try to sell me something...haha

So yep...I think getting a permission will take away a lot of bad side effects.

C - who's waiting for the sun to come back

TwoPynts ( ) posted Wed, 19 April 2006 at 7:37 AM

Yes, I would definitely ask permission when going into a dealership. Another though is to go to a dealership that deal is classic cars. You could probably get some pretty nice detail shots that are much tougher when you have crowds of people around. I'm glad you enjoyed the show. I'll make a Part 2 in another thread so as not to overload one thread with images. There are some older cars you may like. :)

Kort, Its an excellent idea to start a 2nd thread on this theme.

croxie ( ) posted Thu, 20 April 2006 at 3:32 AM

Hmm....I wonder if there is any car dealers in Chesterfield that have classic cars...might have
to go into Sheffield for that. But yeah, that would be even more nifty :D
