Nice, but they don't have Mobil stations anymore, do they?

I find it really cool that hot rodders are starting to use power plants like 6s and straight 8s more now. It adds variety to a show, and makes your vehicle stand out from the crowd. Nice shot.

Brillaint capture. And my I say HOLY CRAP this is nice. Well done buddy. Did you have to correct you lens in the editing. The front well looks odd. Still this is a classic poster.

why thank-you much...

I bumped the exposure up a little, add some contrast and used the burn tool on the concrete and rocks. And the back rim gets a little smokey from the exhaust. The rims are beveled in and I think that's what gives them a funky look when shooting them straight on.

I love to see inline 6 and 8 in rods like this, I found a cheap straight 8 1946 Buick the other day, it went end for end in 1952 and has sat ever since, so the engine is super low miles and if it is not siezed should be easy to make run!

But I also have a 57 T-bird 312 for my T roadster... so I am torn as what to do...



Great shot!

I guess that all depends on if you want torque or horsepower.....

Thank-you!!
