Default Corvette Corvair

Had the chance to film this beauty back in October. I love the motorama cars as it is, so to see a recreation in person was definitely a cool experience.

YES, that can be done, BUT ON MANY videos there is/are sounds coming from the subject of the videos (race cars, drag boats, WWII planes, steam locomotives, etc, etc, etc, etc) which is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too many times drowned out by the stupid music. And it's REALLY getting bad on many of the TV shows. Frequently on many TV shows you cannot understand the dialog/conversations because of the blasting music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't understand the mentality of it!!!!!!!!!!

Trust me, when the day finally comes for us to start the engines on the A26, and we make videos, the ONLY music in the video will be the Pratt and Whitney R2800 engines!

When the music starts, I usually close that window (like the one above) and move on. Just because the producer likes that particular music doesn't mean everyone else will. To each their own though.

I played a country and western record backward once by mistake. Dang if the singer's wife didn't come back to him, his pickup truck started running again and his old hound dog came back to life!

I hate the stupid music also. Music is a personal thing and should be left out of car videos. Your favorites are NOT my favourites!

As many times as I've seen that car and followed it's build, I've never seen some good pics of the inside behind the seats. What's in there? Is is like a C2 or just a deck like on a C1? Pics anyone? :

Must be cold in Fla Frankie if you are playing country and western backwards.
