yeah - can't really do it properly there though - as I'll be there in my kit car hopefully and won't have all my equipment with me - if you look at the sort of shots I've been doing you'll see what I mean - the recent ones are on a black background on the far right of the gallery page - /61/"]http://www.paulward.net/portfolio/automotive-photography/#gallery[modal]/61/
Nice. Happy for you to use them as inspiration - obviously you're not actually using the pic itself so I don't have an issue with people drawing or painting from them

Some great work there Paul.
My faves are the straight on shot of a Merc where you use the lighting to catch detail. And the side on Ferarri where you catch the top edge. I love a bit of low key moody lighting.
He had a special photographer too though
Whereabouts are you based? I'm happy to do a few pics if you're near the Midlands
I am based in Sheffield I need to get the door trims sorted still not sure about the numbers,stripe. if I dont like the look always worries me taking them off with fresh paint

Ahh not too far then, well if you fancy a short trip to Birmingham one day let me know, or there might be a good countryside location somewhere between us that we could use

Don't put the stripes and numbers on! I managed to pull lacquer off both my cob and P4 - one removing an old stripe the other removing a stick on number plate on the nose and that was stable paint - don't do it! (making my nerves bad just thinking about it!)
trucks slow but sure ned gear box is now fully fitted just need to fill it up with oil and pipe the servo up. had a mare of a job the gearbox adapter did not marry up with the starter. will update the thread when I get some pics
To be honest if you haven't put a price the first question will always be how much.
It annoys me when people list a car on EBay with a reserve but won't tell you what the reserve is. Am I really going to waste a 4 hour round trip to look at a car that the seller won't tell me how much it is.
well shucks if I had known someone was going to offer the date as the price I would have listed it as £31052002 seems a fare price now I think of it, or I could stick with the make a offer and ignore all the genuine time wasters.lol
nice - I'd have included a few pics further away from the car too - as most of them feel 'a bit close' to really see the shape properly - and with such a nicely done car it seems a shame not to see it in its full glory!

You have a good point there.
I recall when I wanted some tyres and considered Costco. I phoned and asked the price, saying I'd take out membership (IIRC £20 per annum) - They wouldn't give a price, said come and have a look! So I told them they'd just lost any credibility, because I wouldn't do a 20 mile round trip just to see the price.
agreed with the pics but the weather has been pants here snowing again today and most of it . they were the only photos I had but will update the add if the sun makes a appearance for long enough have my spot to park already picked out
