  1. Here is a photo I took in 2003 of a real 1955 Chevy Bel Air 4 door wagon...Parked too close to the gate to get any rear view photos...
  2. TR6 is a cool ride...
  3. Will look forward to this build...
  4. I took these photos in 2003 with a crappy digital point and shot camera. Photos were taken at the same car show as the 1959 Chevy impala convertible I posted earlier here.
  5. This is gonna be cool...Looking forward to more progress.
  6. Looking damn cool!
  7. Looking awesome....
  8. I took these photos 22 years ago in August 24, 2003 at a local car show in Halifax, NS, Canada.
  9. Around the late 1970s, I got tired of my 1969 Ford Falcon Futura and lusted for 1970s Datsun Z car or a Ford Capri (the first gen Ford Capris built in Europe, not the 2nd gen Mercury Capri based on the Mustang). The Carpis were IMHO overpriced. The 240Z was more in line with my budget but everyone I looked at was badly rusted. So I settled instead for a 1974 Toyota Celica with a 5 speed transmission. Would love to have resto-moded 240Z/260Z with a small block V8.
  10. Ouch, sorry to hear about windshield mishap...

  16. Thanks for the kind words. For these photos in 2008 I used an Olympus DSLR - Olympus E500 and the kit lens that came with it, Zukko 14-45 lens. I shot the car in the RAW camera format and used Adobe Lightroom to process the RAW file into a TIFF which I brought into Photoshop to crop the photo and add my K3NMO signature. In 2010 I upgraded to an Olympus E620 which is a 12 megapixel camera, the E500 is 8. Around 2014 I switched to Nikon cameras. I purchased a Nikon D3300 which is 24 megapixel. Since then I purchased a few more Nikons - D7000 (I have two of these), D71000 and D5200. I switched to Nikon because of larger selection of lenses. My Nikon D7100 and D7000 can use some older 35mm film lenses and use Nikons auto focus option. I picked up an older 28-80 Nikon film lenses for a few bucks ((I believe it was $30) which works perfectly on the D7100 and D7000. But does not work on the D3300 or D5200. I think the key is to shot in RAW and not allow the camera to compress to JPEG. Better to do so in Lightroom or Photoshop.

  18. PS: I wish AMT would re-release the 1963 Corvette roadster.
