Hi jts,
Yes, very pretty photos.
Dawn or dusk photos often make a good looking car look even better!
Regards,
Alan

Nice job! Perfect back drop (no distractions), and EXCELLENT color contrast! These are "calendar worthy", or postcards!

Thanks for posting those great photos of your beautiful 74. Caught in just the right light it's very hard to beat Mille Miglia Red. I know everyone likes the chrome front bumper cars more, but in my slightly biased opinion there is something very special about the nice sleek neat look of the front view (pre-bumperettes)of the 73-74 sharks.

I agree! I think the '74 has the best looking front end. The back end is great too, but it would be perfect if one fixes the seam.

Fabulous photos!

Beautiful car, great pics!

Looking at that first pic makes me want to cut off my front
bumper guards on my 77. Very clean.

If you cut them off save them in case you decide to sell

To jts90vette......your car will be an antique soon, yet it is timeless!

Thanks guys for all the kind replies. I love this car! In Ky for licensing purposes it is an antique, it has an antique license plate on it.
