Some of those are awfully awesome. The yellow Corvette is amazing! I love those doors. The Camaro is also awesome. I don't know why, but I've always liked those garish street machines from the 70s and 80s. they have so much soul lol.

Anyway,

I really like the treatment given to this Packard.

Second one is awesome. I remember reading about it @ Mustang Montlhy or something.

there's a guy here in Mexico building one with a twin-turbo 4.6 modular engine, but it still has a loooooooooooong way to go...
 
I never cared for the 4.6L V8s. Much rather would have a 4V Cleveland or a built Windsor or better yeat 429/460. You can really go nuts, I mean 3500+hp out of a 460 SVO HO talldeck.
 
show on friday :D sad to say my interest in photography is weak these days and I really struggle to force myself to take more pictures, which I then regret after :indiff: sun was so bright too which didn't help.
Still was a good turn out, and I'm trawling flickr in the slightly selfish hope that someone finally snapped one of my car :lol:
 
Viva las Vegas!

Such an uncommon treatment for a 57 Chevy, but SO COOL:

if this was flat dark grey instead of black, didn't have the lettering on the doors and neither those ugly diamond-plate parts, and bias plys in the front, it would be absolutely perfect, holy hell.

You can of course go see more from where all these came from.
 
Man the customs in America are so frequently cool :( All we get here are the odd two or three interesting ones at a show *le sigh* And those are usually imported!
 
That's because most of those cars wouldn't be legal by the UK laws :( All the open wheel cars would need fenders for a start :(
