drove out to ruby's last week. only two and half rows of cars. big change from a few years ago, as is for all the weekly shows it seems.
wasn't completely in the mood to shoot, definitely not to chat. mostly went through the motions, shot a few here, shot a few there. nothing there was really rockin' my world. good practice though.
i see this one once in a while. still like to study the paint job, try to imagine how they create some of the effects in the paint.
was wandering around the corn feed run, randomly shooting pictures of stuff i like, when the owner of this little car asked if i could take a picture of it.
he's thinking about selling it. or maybe just wants a picture. if that's the case, feel free to buy it from me, and help pay for keeping this website going.
so, did my good deed, and still had half a show to go...good day, good day.
not posting on tuesday, as i plan to have dinner with my boy, then perhaps hit the fuddrucker's show in el toro. so here's a second post for today. enjoy!
the pinstripe detail on this ‘76 pontiac grand prix is amazing. you really must see this one in person. the color is gorgeous and the wavy cross hatching on the center of the hood is so meticulous, it's hard to imagine how painstaking it was to achieve, unless you are familiar with masking for airbrushing back in the day.
found it this day in the back lot of the downey broiler, but also saw it two days later at ruby's in whittier. should have got it a ruby's with the sun setting on it...the color was irridescent....but i didn't...don't know why. should've would've could've. maybe next time.
