Hi everyone. I've decided to run my truck out to West Palm Beach Florida next month for the Barrett-Jackson Auction.

I was wondering if anyone can create a shadow/Silhouette of the truck in a similar manner as the '49 that I've attached.

If you'd like a larger file to work with, please email me, and I'll send one that is 500K, or click on this link (http://home.earthlink.net/~gregsm/images/75%20blazer%201.JPG)

This image will be used in the promotional material and on the website once the truck is consigned.
Thanks in advance, Greg.

What you want is a "knock-out". I'm on the wrong computer now, but if I get a chance tomorrow I'll give it a try for ya. Shouldn't be too difficult.

LONGHAIR, thank you very much for the effort. Is it possible to clean areas in the windhsield where the bricks show in the background?

Also, it does not show on the '49Ford, but I have seen other sihlouettes where there is some shadowing behind the truck to give the impression there may be a wall behind the truck. This softens the starch white around the truck itself.

Bouncytruck, any other ideas?

Thank you again, Greg.

Longhair, thank you for cleaning it up a bit. I sure appreciate your help. I'll see if B-J can update the photo's they have with this one.

By the way, the truck is lot No. 45.1 but it hasn't posted on their website yet.

Thanks again,
Greg.

Bouncytruck and Longhair, The picture has been uploaded to the B-J auction weblisting. It looks really good. My lot number has been changed as well. It is now 82.1
