One of the things I've always struggled with is how at car shows we always display the cars with the hoods and trunk lids open - so all the photos I've taken of great cars at car shows are with the hoods open - which ruins the lines of the car. Case, in point, the photo of this sweet Judge rendition of the wagon, would be SO much cooler if the hood was closed.

I have to agree with you, I leave the hood closed on my 67. Ya seen one engine, ya seen em all.

Good stuff Gentleman.

I wonder if this is the same car (with hood etc closed) prior to "The Judge" treatment? Probably not, color, wheels, grills, etc appear to be different...personally I like them both.

I'll agree with you in regards to photographing the car. Looks better down but I do like to take a gander under the hood when it comes to just being at the show and looking at the cars.

BTW, I mis-spoke when I said my friend built a copy of the car in the ad that Alvin posted...The car in the ad is actually HIS car. He created the entire image of the ad from a GTO ad...lol. I guess it's gotten picked up and is all over the web now.
