Awesome. I had one of those Mercedes . I am not sure how I feel about the streched tires on it though.

Great shots. Wonder how that car would look in a grave site. I happen to be a german mechanic, that is not a classic in the true since. Not a bad looking body, I just hope that wire harness holds up.

I appreciate this particularly because I had one of similar style -- 1987 300D. I love the photos, but not the wheels that he has on the car. That body style just looks weird with low-profile tires, and the emblems on the wheels are way too big. :)

Love the 2nd shot- but can't decide whether that little part of the building with the graffiti on the left of the photo is distracting or adds to the photo. Love the sky and how the car looks so shiny/flawless in this photo though.

Loving my new camera! I have absolutely NO idea what I'm doing with it,
but giving "hobbyist p
hotographers" a bad name has been fun! :lol:

These are OK, but if you want to make it look as good as is possible, you need to move it where the reflections from the trees aren't in the body & use the sky to put highlights where you want them to show off the contours of the body.

This shot was taken in a parking lot. How does it look compared to yours?

Yeah on that chevy pic there are less reflections from the environment. Thanks for the advice!
