+1 Gorgeous car man. It's really too bad about the wreck but surprisingly you handled it well.. Or at least better than I probably would have. Props on making the cover and good luck putting her back together.

If you seriously want to make a poster out of some of the pictures you can email them to me and I'd be willing to do the leg work for you.
I know the files are huge so you can use YouSendIt.com and email them to projectcamaro (at) gmail (dot) com.
It's up to you though.

Just be in the right place at the right time with the right car in the right color with the right pose. lol

Seriously, most of the time they choose the cover car based on many things other than the car. It mostly comes down to what image looks the best on the cover.

In my case they needed a car to represent for the LS issue and they wanted a color that would pop. My blue car was set to be on this same cover two years ago but I got hired by Popular Hot Rodding so that didn't happen.

best of luck to ya getting it back to perfect

:edit: i buy any poster of that car, but definatly the welding one
Yea, when the car is done we can meet over at John Forces deal

I am guessing the TIF was saved as indexed color, you need to change it to RGB color to save as a JPG. You do this by going to the menu... IMAGE>MODE>RGB COLOR. Now you should get the option to save as a JPG.

If it works let me know so we can have a high quality image

Thanks,
Brian
Thanks brian,

I checked and the TIFF file is set for RGB color and for 16 bits channel. Still no go to JPG.

Is that "out of the can" or is there any additions/modifications to it?

Can you give me a idea of how much metal/pearl is in the paint. I can't see it real well, but it looks to have a decent amount of "light catching" properties.

Omg that wrecked pic ide prob be furious and wanting to kill him or be crying. All the work the old cars take and then it gets wrecked. My dad restores old cars for a living and I worked with him for awhile so I know what it takes.

Steve,

Very nice, just got our copy at work yesterday. Hope she's better than before when done, and it's making me really miss my Nova right about now!
