Recent Pro Photoshoot
Hired a local car photographer to snap some good pics of my car recently. Just got the photos and thought I would share. Overall, very happy with the exterior shots of the car. A little less pleased with the interior/underhood/misc other shots.
Our photo shoot was interrupted by rain, so we will get back together in a couple of months and shoot some more photos. We're thinking we'll do some with the Houston city skyline in the background.
Here's a couple of the best shots.

Here's a few other photos that I've taken more recently for those that aren't familiar with the car. Clearly, not quite as good on photo quality, but I'm happy with my amateur results.....
These couple are before the front spoiler....
Best of show for both at a recent show.....

Here's some short videos from some older shows.... Just to show off the lights... Since I like to keep RadioFlyer in business! (lucky for me he's local!)

I also have sequential turn signals, but it turns out I just don't have good video on that one....
And then just a little video showing it's not all show....

After I learn how to use my GoPro, I'll have better video showing off the bark on those B&B Bullets!

Damn, you guys are fast on PM's with questions....
It's not the stock Electron Blue. It's a custom mix. Uses the same Electron Blue color but changes the metallic and switches the mix of Metallic/Pearl so there is more pearl than metallic. Hard as a mother to photograph. Not even the pro got it!
Here's a photo. A little over-exposed, but closest you can get to seeing the paint as it looks in the full sun. Anything less than full sun and you lose all effect of the pearl and it looks closer to stock.

Thanks for the comments everyone. I've owned the car since new, and spent the last 10 years slowly modifying it to my tastes.
Not bad for my old Chevy with >110k miles on it!!!!!
