Pack your bags--we'll trade places

Here you'll have an 8 car garage that has only had a car in it a few times but is equipped with chassis jig, welders, air compressors, parts washers(solvent and hot water)boring bar,surface grinder, Sunnen CK10 , align hone, stroker rod hone,head shop, balancer,lathe, milling machines, etc,etc,etc--everything but a crank grinder---
I want a mountain top,wife wants a creek---

Hello all,

I do have a question.

Just so we are absolutely clear on this, the photo shoot will not cost the car owner any money?
And we get to keep the copies of photos?

I am planning to be there, unless work gets in the way.

You flunked, RC. You did say, "I do have a question."

Hi Ralph.

You going to join us at the photo shoot? Oh yea, you left your car in AZ. Maybe you can get River to make a red car look like yours. I would say he could use mine, but I know making a Blue car look Red would make it look slow also. Ha ha.

Hello,

Spoke with Joe about the cost question. No cost to us. We are providing him with "props"

JOE: Can we get a final head count of which cobra's are showing up and how many girls will be in attendance? What time slots are filled up?

I got an email from Rich S. about bringing his cobra. He or I will follow up if we will be adding his car. I haven't heard from Chris D. or Wolf.

Greetings all, sorry for being off the forums for a bit, so much to do! So the shoot was fantastic, THANK YOU! to everyone who came out. I really do appreciate it and so do the ladies.

But as fate would have it, we couldn't get all the drivers in. I feel terrible this happened. So I am toying with the idea of having perhaps a shoot for those cars that I didn't get to?

If this is something that those driver's would like (and only those driver's we can't have any additional add-ons) let me know. I would ask John once again to allow us access to his garage. And he's been very gracious about having us use his garage the first time.

I JUST started looking at the images Sunday night and they look fantastic for unedited images. I hadn't looked at them since the shoot due to the fact that when I got home Saturday night, i was exhausted and collapsed in bed. My wife found me snoring away my cares. So I spent the entire sunday with her and her father. for father's day.

Took in "Green Latern" the movie (was ok).

And then i looked at the pics, I'm still correlating everything so i can start burning the discs and send them to John.

So that's been my weekend. I hope all you guys enjoyed the shoot and had a wonderful Father's day too!

Last detail, IF we end up doing this 2nd shoot, and there was a model (or two) you'd like to see come back, we would have to pay them this time for their appearance. So let me know and i'll make it happen.

Lastly last, i'm goign to try to upload some preview images on here tonight when I get home from my Dr.'s Appt. this afternoon.

Thanks again, everyone, ok i'm out!

Verrrryy Nice!

Can't wait to see mine.

[lovehamr]

More please!!

[River]

Hey Drivers,

Quick update, i'm ALMOST done correlating all the images. I was going through each image to see which ones I liked for my portfolio. Lots of images I liked.

Anyway, the process is time consuming, not to mention my computer crashed like 3 times while I was converting my images.

anyway, I'll be burning your dvd-roms by tomorrow. I'll let John know when they are done and he and I will figure out a date I can drive up and drop them off.

Thanks again gang. And if i don't get a chance to see any of you, have a FANTASTIC Fourth of July!

Greetings Drivers,

Another update, i finished correlating all the images. I'm in the process of burning dvd-roms of all your pics!

So i'll be busy this holiday weekend

oh well, it's all worth it, these are beautiful photos and i can't thank you guys enough for allowing me to do this shoot. It's really given my portfolio a boost!

Thanks again everyone. And have a Great Fourth!
