Yeah, you want them like I had taken, but with nothing in the way.. You want pure side pics as even to them as possible. So I could get a little bit lower on them.
I just had to improvise for the first ones.

Did you get my E-Mail BTW?

Exactly... get as far away as you reasonably can and use the optical zoon, too... that will reduce the wide-angle distortion.

Scott, what years are those cars?

hey! there is nothing wrong with the look and style of a delorean.
(everything else on the other hand)

I could be there and I have a digital camera with an optical zoom, but its only 3 megapixels.

Well, 3Mb would probably be acceptable. I just want to make sure its high enough res that I can zoom in and actually make out details.

And yes, the look of the DeLorean is great, it IS everything else. 145 Hp I think it has, haha!

Yeah, we used to be a DeLorean dealership and when the poo hit the fan they had a few cars on the showroon floor. So they just kept them. Sold a few over the years( the last one went for $65k if I recall) and kept one for the showroom. Still has the stock number on the windshield. It has about 113 mi. on it now , mostly from me firing it up every few years and blowing the cobwebs out. It does drive like a '75 Vega and if you look real close it looks like someone built it in their basement. Junk then and junk now! It's got a Volvo Penta V-6 with throttle body fuel injection that won't get out of it's own way. I'm sure an Xb would smoke it in all regards. They are very hard to see out of also, everything is a blind spot. I don't even think they look all that great either.

That is awesome... now if only I could find an old abandoned Toyota showroom with a 2000GT hidden in the cobwebs.

How is thic coming? Hate to sound impatient, but since these cars are so hard to find I want to make sure this opportunity doesn't disappear.
