26th - With labor day coming up I'm sure it will be one of the
last times you'll get a chance to take some pictures of your car before you
store it for the winter. Before you do that, please read some articles
on how to take good car pictures. Here's one from
Popular Hot Rodding.
Following some simple rules can go a long
way. Keep stuff out of the background; watch for things growing from
the top of your roof or hood; make sure that you take pictures on pavement
and not grass; if you do a shot from below make sure you can see all four
tires; avoid parking lots with markings; make sure you don't see reflections
of other things on the car; etc. I've found the best place to take
pictures is up against the side of a warehouse building. Sam's Clubs
are great for this because there is generic color walls all over. |

23rd - I was thinking about taking my car to the drag strip before
the season ends to see what kinds of times I can pull. I started to
think about all the safety requirements cars have now a days. Good
thing too. Because no matter what your level of skill, you are
sometimes at the mercy of mechanical failure. Check out this rather
cool photo I found on the internet. There is so much flame that its
coming out the front of the hood! Dang. -Martin |

11th - One of the things I'm sure all of us wish we had in our
collections are originals Chevy brochures. Occasionally they pop up on
ebay or at swap meets. I found this site that has some photos from
nearly all manufacturers. It's interesting to go back and see some of
those pictures. Here are the links directly to
Malibus or
Chevelles or
El Caminos. -Martin |

4th - The other night I'm flipping through the TV and came across
a show about a tattoo parlor down in Miami. That got me to thinking if
anyone ever got a tattoo of a Chevelle. Well I found at least one.... -Martin |
