Oz-Tom, great images.   Where is Australia are these taken?    

Oakridge winery - Yarra Valley (Victoria). Lots of wineries and nice roads in this region!

Thanks Richard! I took custodianship October last year.
It's a lovely car and was in a 'carcoon' since the 90s until recommissioning during covid - one family owner from new. Story goes its the '72 Melbourne Motor Show car. Very original down to the original seat material etc. Good fun!

[SydneyTii]

What a result Tom, well done!

Someone staked out along the road took this and somehow sent it.   Never got his name- not sure if I saw him…   Nice lens and camera make the difference!

Getting our cars ready to attend midAmerican 2002 fest in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, we are caravanning with a group of cars from Austin leaving on Wednesday meeting at Crystal Bridges Museum on Thursday midday…my grandson Breyden Clark is driving our fjord blue Baur targa and Tory and I are driving our Ceylon Gold tii…

 

And two pictures of what I’ve been work on…and one of my next 2002 project…

That’s a great fog and spot combo.  How is the red stop light attached?   Did you find a way to not drill the bumper?

On the Ceylon Gold tii I drilled the bumper, because the rear bumper has European brackets and it’s only about 3/8 of an inch off the body on a 72 …for my 73. I made a bracket like that picture that’s attached.

Interesting.   The oval “band” goes around…?

Pic from pit stop on a spirited drive on the Pig Trail from Eureka Springs while at MidAmerica.  Color or B&W?

 

[SydneyTii]

Lovely car Greg!

[CGoldone]

I’d darken the contrast and darken generally the background.  Highlight that great car…!

 

You can also create colour for the car and B&W for the rest.  Problem is that your car is not a high colour like blue or red….  But it’s a great effect.  Snapseed is an app to do that on the iPhone.  Probably Samsung, etc as well.

The careful viewer will also see Norma, the E30, through the front and rear windshields.

I can’t get a collector car close enough, but I’ll send a picture of my newest one soon. In the meantime, did not want you all to miss this live feed from Halemaumau Crater, Kilauea Mountain, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. About 3 miles away!
