Your photos and the car are pretty awesome, maybe a touch too much processing on the 3rd and 4th ones, but it suits the subject well.

Nice work.

They put an article about this rat rod up on the Motor Austin site with some of my pics:

MOTOR Austin Cars! - 1931 Chevrolet Pickup

One is also the featured photo on their home page:

MOTOR Austin - Car Shows, Cruise Nights, Hot Rods, Muscle Cars, Car Clubs and more!

It has a Hopalong Cassidy sheriff's badge on the front. The coolant overflow tank is a Jack Daniels bottle.

These were supposed to be included in a submission to Rat Rod Magazine but while we were waiting for it to cool down outside to take the rest of the photos, he changed out his intake manifold. Now we have to shoot a complete new set.

The rolling shots on that road with the field rock, as does the guy-with-car portrait. Very nice!
