Guess what, a new guy!
 
Hi, My name is Frode, and I live in Norway.
My car is an 1969 Ford Mustang Fastback (Mach 1 clone) that I'm slowly transforming into a g-machine. I live near a good roadrace track, and have done a few laps there to get a feel of the car and what's need to be done to it. Engine is ok, everything else has to go. First step on the way is a TCP Power Rack & Pinion.
Installed that earlier tonight. BTW, here is a picture of the car.

Nice car, amazing photo with the sunset, and the mountains in the background on the action shot are beautiful too.

Welcome Frode, and that's quite the awesome shot of your car.
Maybe Steve could sneak that one into the magazine someday.

Welcome to the site.

That first picture is awesome.

"Yeah, the windows are up too!" LOL.
Frode, looks like you read that article on how to take a picture of your car...

fvike 01-23-2006 12:22 PM

Sure did. Great article. So many things I hadn't thought of. Here's another photo, but it's photoshopped, because it was very dark.

good stance on the photo. Has a little grain. Car is also a little lop sided. Shoot a little earlier or later depending on sunset or sunrise. Other then that, Awesome ride. I am not the biggest fan of Ford but I know a great car when I see one. You have in my opinion the best year body style wise.
I know everyone is after the elussive 67 fastback but in my opinion 68-70 is the best. Hopefully you can get your pics in the members rides catagory.

Markss28, thanks for the tips. I actually took 22 pictures that evening, but the light was fading fast. Of those 22 pictures, maybe 4 of them are usable. The rest had different flaws in them.
