Thanks Tazzz2. Yours as well! that's how mine started out in life, a 70' firebird esprit. I have to ask, I noticed you have Senior Chief under your profile name, are you retired Navy?

that is a super nice job, I only wish mine was that far along (also 70 Esprit), are you running 17x8's or are your rears 9's?

Those are just 16X8's! If I had done over again I would put out the extra cash and gone with the 17's. I do have my eye on the new honeycombs coming out.

Well it looks great the way it is. 17" rides rougher too, I don't know how people drive these cars with 18's, my 17's are harsh enough in comparison to those smooth riding 14's that were on there! I have been thinking of sandblasting my centers like on the Vintage Wheel works to give them a vintage vibe.

If you decide to sandblast the centers of your wheels you'll have to post some pics, I would like to see how that would turn out.

Just scanned these into my computer.
They were taken almost 30 years ago. Car currently belongs to a PY Forums member. (lets see if if he figures it out) |

I'd bet that they were a bit pitted,but still pretty shiny chrome.
It was a cloudy day & pics are slightly over exposed. Did you see those before? |

That picture taken from the rear shows what I would call a "perfect stance." Nice backdrop too.

You seem to have more pictures of my car than I do.
Definately in better locations. |

As I recall,I was standing on a barstool when I shot the rear 3/4 view which gave it just the right angle. The shadows,depth of field,exposure & backdrop just seem to really flow. The subject also contributes ALOT to the photo quality. It was definately the NICEST early T/A around here at the time. (those are REAL JW's under the factory installed PO6 trim rings) When I think back,it was amazing how many "pile of junk" early T/A's were around in the early 80's.(NOBODY was restoring them yet) What's missing from this shoot is Norwoods 70 1/2. It would be the PERFECT mate for the photo shoot that GM never did. I'll bet they would have sold a TON more blue T/A's if one was actually pictured in the showroom brochure & sales/order guide. |
