Title: Show Me Your Cars/Photos of Cars
Post by: monty on July 16, 2010, 01:37:21 PM
hey everyone.

i really like taking pictures of cars! after seeing KyNOLA's beauty i thought it would be fun if everyone could share their cars, or photos they've taken of other cars.

this is my Jaguar S-Type

this is my friend's Ferrari 360 Spyder. probably the nicest vehicle i will ever have the chance to drive! it seriously sounds like a jet engine when you accelerate!

I sold it but this was my pride and joy before kids. Stage 3+ Turbo, close to 400 HP, all the work done myself, pretty much everything was custom....

Not the best pic, but at least they were clean...  (detail guy was just packing up)

My daily driver is peeking in from the left.


They really are quite practical.  Here is my Bavarian whole house generator in action during a massive ice storm.

Ok, not whole house - just the important stuff.   Laptops, network gear, internet router, couple of lamps...   It was cold out, so the beer fridge in the garage kept good temps.  ;D   (yes I had the garage door propped open)

Well this is what I would be driving if I had the vehicle I wanted.
(http://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af233/quarlow/1985-toyota-land-cruiser.jpg)
Otherwise my 2000 chrysler neon is not worth wasting digital film on.  :D :D :D
And this is the latest bike my brother and I built.
(http://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af233/quarlow/Billygoatgreen.jpg)
This one is sold already and we haven't even finished it yet. It has a 50cc knock off honda motor and goes about 35 mph. We buy the bikes and motors seperately and then put them all together.
And this is the first one we built. It road legal as far as it has all the signals and light, muffler, horn,  same as a motor cycle.

1936 Ford Phaeton powered by a Chevy 327 with a 4 barrel Edelbrock carb sitting on an Edelbrock manifold.  Headers and a racing cam contribute to the magic.  Lokar shifter handles the transmission.  Car's name is "Thumper".  Painted on the back is the Disney character Thumper.  The car lives up to its name. ;)

You guys are killing me - I grew up building cars, turned wrenches for years, now I can't afford anything that's half as good as what you're showing.

Nice cars guys...  when I grow up I'll have one  ;D 

I don't think you need a pic of my 2003 Trailblazer either.  I love it though and it will always be my kayak vehicle.  When the kayak went bouncing down across the hood a month ago I worried more about the kayak than the trailblazer.   The trailblazer had a white stripe and the kayak has a matching black one :o

Some guy has a bright red Viper with a plate that reads: NOMOWRK
