Thank you guys for all the great comments! I am working on getting a nicer camera! The wheels if I remember correctly came from an amt 49 merc, not sure about the tires though. The colors really set this off with all the trim.

Very cool, I like it!

But as far as getting a "nicer" camera... EVERY camera is capable of taking an in-focus photo. If your photos are out of focus, I guarantee you it's not the camera... it's the operator! Check the manual and see what you're doing wrong. Are you too close? Macro setting on/off? Correct exposure for the conditions (indoor/outdoor/flash/no flash, etc.) The fact that some of your photos are in focus and some are not tells me it's not the camera, it's you! :lol:

Thanks for the input, I actually had a buddy shoot some pics for me so there are some of mine and some of his. I did find out one of my camera's has macro settings so I do need to learn to use it :(

Very nice 63! I am huge fan of X-frame Chevy`s. :lol:

Great to find you here as well Chris! Thanks for all the comments, this was a fun one to build, I left it all pretty loose and I'm glad I did as I am going to do a new interior for it with some flocking and a few more details.
