I drove by this old, unused packing house the other day, and decided it would be a great place to take some pictures. I think they turned out pretty good! What do yall think?

That car would look good no matter where the pics were taken. But yes the spot is very creative good job.

Thanks guys! I think it could use some smoked headlights after looking at these pics, but I think it'll be ok the way it is for now :)

Nice pics and great location. Next time turn it around on the ramp so it looks like it's about to launch. Lol. Sweet coupe btw.

I was originaly going to try and wiggle it up under the overhang, but I didnt quite have enough room, so I left it there and took pics. As I was leaving I found out that I can drive in from the other side, and onto the overhang/loading dock side. I'll do that next time.
Thanks for the comments guys!

Thanks! Claybar and some good wax goes a long way! I havent washed the car in better than a month, but it does stay covered, in the garage. I do have to thank NOScoupe for a killer paintjob to begin with though :rock:

I backed it in to the garage things, but there is something hanging from the roof (looks like a loading hopper) that kept me from backing in all the way. I could have, its made of a fabric, but I didnt feel like scratching the roof of my car.I figured it would look cool back in there with the running lights on :) maybe one of those things will "fall" down and get moved out of the way so I can do that.:)

I agree, no matter where you take pics, the car still looks sweet. Claybar and wax?? I never washed it!....only a little final detail spray to knock the dust off.
I want a picture with the wheels up during a launch at the strip!

I decided to run a clay bar over it because it wasn't as good as it could be. I did, and well, its just about perfect now. I'm lucky I bought the car from you! Its probably the cleanest coupe I've seen! Ohh, and after a little delay (waiting , the AFR205's shipped today, and will be here Friday!
I only have one decent launch pic, but it was a pretty gentle launch, so no wheels up pics. No hood either, due to a temporary intake setup. here it is:

Hey CPTJKIRK, If you have a pic of it, I'd love to see it!

I was lazy when it came to waxing, but the weld's were always mirror finished. I am very anxious to see how the AFR's wake it up.

Yea, Speaking of, how in the world did you get those things that shiny??? I worked for about 2 hours on one of the fronts, and I could not get them as shiny as you had them! I was using mothers al. polish with a powerball at first, and then finished off by hand, but you could still see little swirls. I was thinking about trying red jewelers rouge, but I really dont have anything to apply it with.
Any advice?

NOScoupe has the answer. We had to buy some while I was there last and I will need some when I get the car home. He has two polish cleaners. One is cheaper and does an OK job the other costs about 3 Xs as much but it really gets them shiny as a mirror no swirls. You only need to apply a small amount of the second polish. Its like gold. Chris will give us the names.

NOScoupe what about those 2 polish cleaners we used on the wheels?

Regular Mothers for the first cleaning and then Mothers Billet..............is the key for the second round ! Shines like a MF!

I have a great idea about a wheels up launch...turn the car around the other way on the ramp...airbrush out the ramp and the wharehouse...airbrush in some smoke on the rear tires...now you have created a wheel up launch:burnout: :cheers:
Great looking car by the way!

Hahaha. Yea, well, honestly I allready have a floor jack that I painted bright orange, so its easy to photoshop out :) And Thanks! I think it is!
Hey Chris, thanks a ton! I didnt know about the Mothers' Billet polish. I've seen it in stores, but figured it was the same as what I was using. I'll give it a try.
