So, I took some pics of my buddy's '78 corona. We are about to slam it, and when the money comes, put a 1JZ in it.

Anyways, I was hoping for some CC on my pics.

Beautiful!

For some reason tilting the camera counter clockwise doesn't make me dizzy, but clockwise tilts drives me crazy :eyecrazy Anyone else get that?

M powered pay attention to his backgrounds. Nothing special but they make the picture.

There is a nice rust free brown one down the road from me. I have been thinking about asking them to sell it.

Like the ones you have in your sig right? ;)

I don't think we have anything remotely close to that type of backgrounds in L.A if we did, I'd be scared to even go there.

I know tilting the camera is a no-no, but I think sometimes it adds a certain feel to the picture.

Thanks.

Is there any way you can get me his contact info? My friend would really appreciate it. He is looking for another.

Nice work, the backgrounds really do make the pictures, and the lighting is superb.

I just went over there. Took some pix too, but can't find my camera cable. It's in real nice shape. A few dents but no apparent rust. 02 inspection. Auto, dark brown, tan interior. Legacy edition. No one was home. I will work on it.

In LA? You have more good photo-locations than I could ever dream of.

I took these pics in Centerville, TN. Its about an hour and a half south of Nashville, and it is literally in the middle of nowhere.
Its like travelling back in time. As far as the town size.. Theres the main square.. and thats it. maybe 10 buildings total...
And I took these there.
Im SURE that in one of our largest cities, you can find ONE location other than weight watchers :stickoutt

Thanks man. You have first dibs, but if you dont want it, Im very serious. My friend has this '78 corona and a matching '80 cressida.

Here's an old pic, right when we picked it up. Its now sitting on XR-4 Longchamps, same wheels as the corona. Its also in the middle of getting a MegaSquirt install.
Its pretty fucking awesome to have two brother cars in the same color.

I dont agree with the backround.
It has more color than the car is is disorienting.

Ig the theme is the car then the backround has to be less impressive.

Just an opinion.
