Here are some images of my new Beast. It arrived on Feb 27 and has 1,200 miles on it now. I can't ask for anything more. I spent the weekend detailing using GlenE's procedures and it shines like a mirror. These shots were taken at dusk and it must be seen in the sun to truly appreciate the shine.

You know how to take great pictures. I think the dusk shots work well on these cars. Direct sun looks beautiful but is difficult makes photography more challenging.

Your Stingray is amazing, love your wheels and caliper color. A few of those photos are suitable for framing, very well done!

Thanks everyone. Really appreciate the complements. I hope to find a good place to get some great shots that really show it off. I would like to take it out to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and get some shots with the iconic speedway in the background. The Stingray was the pace car for last years 500 and seeing it there sold me on the car and the LB color.
