Hi Denis,
great car this, a really american muscle cars. The front design and lights covered like a Dodge Charger R/T produced in Brazil, a nice and very fast car too, with a big V8 engine and 215hp! Great work my friend.
Congratulations and Hug!

Hi Denis,
I can feel the rattle that these old muscle cars gave once you turned teh key. They looked great, they were cheap, they were powerful and they lasted about 75,000 miles. Those were the days. Thaks for this lovely trip down memory lane.
Regards, Tom

Bon fini pour l'histoire , où mon Dieu trouves -tu de si beaux modèles ? Bravo Denis ,tu m,a fait frémir .. merci Réal.

Hi Denis,

very nice catch of this old brave car! THe low pov as the best choice since it enhances the idea of imponence. Goog colors, I like to see the blue sky as the background and contrasting with the dark painting. Very good job!
Regards,
Carlos

Hi Denis,
a nice one! Wonderful blue sky and of course the car... wonderful, maybe it has seen better times, but it still looks beautiful. Also an interesting point of view, I like it a lot!

Take care

Hey Denis,

An excellent picture. What I like here is the perspective, or your point of view. It really gives the car that "oomph" feeling. Great textures.

Best regards.

Salut Denis

Déja bientot 40 ans pour cette olds qui fera partie integrante de l`autre. La prise de vue a un pied du sol nous montre bien la carroserie arrondie des voitures sport fin 1960. Les détails sont bons des jantes rouillés et la seule head beam.

Salut Denis,
It's a bit sad that this 40 years mechanic wonder is about to be dismantled, but at least it will be "giving life" to a brother of him. The low POV and the excellent light management, that results in gorgeous colours, makes it look splendid despite its age and some signs of decay (wheels, painting, etc.).
310 HP!!! What a machine! I wonder how many litters of gasoline it swallows each time one steps on the accelerator...
Amicalement, José.
