Here's an example of what our vehicles look like with careful lighting and lens techniques. 😎
I captured this image using a technique called light painting, one of my favorite techniques involving a long exposure, and a moving light source. This image is entirely "in-camera capture", no CGI or filters; I hoped to capture the vehicles essence. This is a prime example of an incredible build.
Gene Winfield, the iconic automotive fabricator and customizer painted this 1966 Mustang coupe in the early 80's. Gene passed away this year, and since this car is almost back on the road again, it seemed fitting to show off some of his incredible work. It was difficult to capture the subtleties in this paint job and I hope I was able to do it justice.
She has chrome tubular IFS with anti sway bar, disc brakes with 6 piston calipers, coil over shocks, and Speedway Engineering Ford 9" rear end.
Since these cars were originally unibody, in order to handle the power and torque, this mustang has been outfitted with a custom fabricated subframe for strength and stability.
The engine compartment: custom radiator cover painted to match the hood, and Dominator made radiator. Powered by a Ford twin cam 4.6 Liter V8, with EFI, Kenny Bell Supercharger, and a Dominator hand made air intake.
Body: custom front grill, custom front bumper tucked into fenders, smoothed/tucked rear bumper, smoothed drip rails, custom tail light rear grill.
Rest in peace Mr. Winfield, the car culture will never be the same.
