Its been a darn while, but Im back with another photoshoot, this time of a very rare in here 1967 427 ci, 4-speed Corvette Ragtop which I found at a upholstery shop, contacted the owner and let the obturator rip. Light was not ideal, but again, it was not my car. Shot with a Canon XTI and a very basic array of lenses, a tripod and the back of a pickup.
Car was good but had some details that Id personally ditch, like the simulated side exhaust (with Thrush covers, no less), the leather interior and the round aircleaner instead of the triangular one, but it was still cool. Detail shots:
Pop-up headlamps worked perfectly:
Six taillights, only custom touch on the body, led to a feature title called Dead mans Curve, in reference to the song by Jan & Dean:
Said Thrush covers:
Engine was, as I said, soul-less, the cool triangular air filter was gone and replaced with a run of the mill round chrome air filter, valve covers were Cal Customs, but aside from that, there were no details to be found here, the 427 was all stock, but had plenty of power still.
Interior was neat, all black and stock with the exception of the stupid leather seats, should have been vinyl, but it was decent, the Inland shifter for the 4-speed was cool.
Finally, some car-to-car shots and some panning shots showing the torque of the big block:
In this one, he was already loosing the tail, but got it back. Torque roxorz the zoxorz.
So there it goes, no wife shots this time because I went alone with a friend. Any questions, any requests, just shoot.
