So I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to shoot this unique collection of history the other day for ManOnTheMove.com (http://manonthemove.com). I unfortunately didn't have enough time to get out all the toys, but I'm hopefully going back soon with more time. This is only a part of the whole collection and I'm thinking its more of the "work in progress" section but I have yet to see the other building. This place sure is a car photographers wet dream. I could spend a week in here if I could. The building was originally built in 1922 and was a silk factory, was later converted for boat building and is now the home to a unique car parts supplier. If you want more I have my selects posted HERE (http://akentphoto.com/Cars/Asphalt/Packards-and-More/11462479_pZvVA#805416242_eyuxu) on my website.

Cheers,
Austin

whats that red car in the first picture (2nd one the left), the 1970s or 1980s one? interesting, what kind of Ghia Ford is it? OMG the Ford Probe IV concept! that has one of the lowest (0.125?) CD figures ever! You def. need to shoot that more. Love those old Packards and the other "interesting" cars I don't know. Keep us posted on new shots.

The probe was one of my favs as well... Here is a link to a better image of the red concept thing. The door design was crazy. HERE (http://www.seriouswheels.com/1970-1979/1977-Ford-Megastar-1-Ghia-Concept-Geneva-Prototype-fa.htm)
