Here's my first try with the Chevelle:



This is my wife driving the El Camino on the autox at RTTH last September:



Jim's Chevy II:



Then I gave my Corvette the greyscale background treatment too (notice the butterfly that happened to fly over the fender when I took the pic):



Finally, I added some action to the Chevelle pic:

Thanks! There's a little race car shop not far from me called Piper Motorsports that made it using my drawings.

Cool pics Herb, and indeed 2 badazz rides! :
the first grayscale with the Chevelle is perfect IMO

That looks pretty cool. It's almost like the background isn't from the same picture.

It's always good to have a plan and we may need a place to live for a while!
