Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage

Ive got a couple of teasers that were released. Before leaving last Sunday for our annual Cruisin the Coast getaway, wifey and me made a short trip north to Natchitoches, LA for their annual car show. Great show set on the river in the towns historic district. Had a great day with friends and was honored to take home " Best Paint" for the show.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage

And here's the two shots that were released as teasers. We shot at HardRock Casino in Biloxi, MS. before sunrise and then raced to the top story of the parking tower to shoot with the sunrise . The second pic was later at a different tower while watching the Autocross event.

That's awesome on the best paint award, but it's true. Your paint shines so nice. Very nice on the photo shoot too!

Appreciate that ! Jeff Eatley did a great job with this. He set up to catch the sun lighting up the underside of the truck and just coming up thru the back glass. Shortly after the sun broke the horizon, this shot came and went in a matter of a few seconds. Pretty cool to see how it was done.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage

Changed up the wheel combination lately and I'm sooooo happy with the results. Previously I was running 18x8's on the fronts with 20x12 in the rear. Put in a call to Boris and Billet Specialties cranked out a set of 20x8.5's to replace the 18's up front. Subtle change but big on looks. Check it out !!
