Rustic village with relocated buildings from different locations in eastern US. I caught the owner while passing mid morning. Asked if he would allow me to take pictures. We are both alumni from VA TECH and had a great time comparing notes from our time at Tech. He graciously allowed me to take several pictures using my I-phone.
The picture was taken along the shore of the Long Island Sound at Tod's Point in Old Greenwich, Connecticut around the middle of the day. It's hard to see but in the distance is some of the skyline of New York City.
Photo was taken at the Charlotte Speed Tour car show. The show was combined with that weekends vintage program and entry included several laps of the Roval - although at modest speeds. The camera used was an Apple I phone, no effects other than a bit of cropping.
Figures from the sculpture "Angels of the Americas" by artist Be Gardiner, examine F5R1009189 in stoney silence. Located at an office park near my house, I imagine the angels approve of the car and would flash a thumbs up - if only they had appendages.
The photo was taken at the Englishtown Raceway track, on Sep 29, 2021, at 5PM. 35mm lens, exposure 1/40, using Canon EOS-1D X Mark II. Photographer James Graves. Photo was taken from the Ford Taurus wagon
I pulled up next to my wife who was sitting at our pond and I thought the car looked nice sitting there so I shot a picture with my phone. The fake fox is there to keep the Herons away from eating my fish.
Driving down the Chisholm Trail Tollway in Fort Worth, Texas. We had a guy in the back of our Jeep Gladiator tied down, taking pictures and another taking videos.
Day 1 taking our adopted baby home. Purchased from original owner builder, an Air Force fabricator of parts for air planes. Informal academic training with engineering knowledge. There's always an engineer or engineering mind engaged building an FFR car. Forgive me for not building my FFR. The Roadster has been a fantasy since 10th grade 1964-65 when I saw a black and white picture of a Cobra in a hot rod magazine. The article described the Cobra beating Sting Rays and XKEs. Fast Forward summer Indian River, MI 2017. A new acquaintance opened his garage door and I immediately knew I was looking at the back of a Shelby Cobra Roadster. Next winter I was reading about Carol Shelby and Cobra history when I noticed the word "replica". I knew the meaning but had no knowledge of a replica Cobra. Last I knew a Cobra was $100s of thousands or millions to own. I could not believe I stumbled from fantasy to reality... I was going to drive a Cobra of my own. Research proved FFR was the best chasis and most sought after. Oct 2018 we adopted a beautifully built FFR Roadster Mk4 from Tom Tegan.
Picture taken just before sunset on Mcculloch Blvd in Lake Havasu City, Arizona prior to the "43rd annual Run To The Sun car show". My wife took the picture with here Iphone.
A quick snap shot with my iPhone 11 on automatic looking into the sunset on Thanksgiving day. As I left my daughter’s home after Thanksgiving dinner I took this shot of my Type 65 Coupe. I think it captures the stunningly clean lines of the original design. It’s a heavily modified Gen 2 car equipped with 2015 Coyote, TKO600 and the Thunderbird IRS. The vision for this build is a clean, modern, road trip capable GT car with a nod or two to some of the lesser known aspects of the original. The modifications include under car exhaust, power windows, power steering, custom dash, dropped cabin and trunk floors and cabin partition. I’m seriously enjoying the gel coat shakedown miles before paint and body next year.
Picture was taken at the Harris Hill Raceway during the Track Day event in San Marcos, TX during the Texas Cobra Club Fall Meet on Oct 8, 2020. Purchased the MK4 complete kit in December 2017 and had it titled and registered in March 2020.
These pics were taken at the sub-division across the road from our house. I just used my iPad with no special effects added. They were taken just prior to noon.
