0100 Old And New Photos
« on: December 05, 2020, 12:53:25 PM »
Hello Everyone,

The first photo is of 0100 with GT40 P/1047 and was taken by Car and Driver magazine in late November of 1966.  I acquired the photo in 2012.  For the past 8 years I have wanted to do a current day version of this photo with GT40 P/1015.  On October 29, 2020 we were finally able to make it happen at the Shelby American Collection.  Thanks to Kieth Champine who did some excellent "clean up" work on the photo for me.

Thanks,
Eric

 So does the current plaid skirt add or subtract from the photo? ;D

It looks like you even went to the trouble of lining up the Magstars and the knock off .......

I love recreations like this one.  Eric, was it easy to line up all the details in this picture, or did you rely on a bit of photoshopping to create this?

Hello Everyone,

Some info on the new photo.  First, the photo I posted was taken with my little Canon PowerShot camera, so nothing fancy.  A friend of my was there and took photos with his professional grade camera equipment, but I do not have his photos yet.  The young lady in the photo is another friend's step-daughter.  I had sent Jonathan (her step-dad) a copy of the original photo to review.  I said to see if she and her Mom might have some clothes to wear that are "close" to the original photo, but not to go searching for and buying new clothes.  The clothes she wore were things they already had, and I thought they were just fine.  It was her first attempt at "modeling" and she is still in high school.  She was absolutely thrilled with the experience of being photographed with a couple of very significant cars and wants to have one of the photos to use in her high school yearbook. 
I had asked Steve Volk, President of the Shelby American Collection, about doing the photos a couple of weeks before Jason Billups brought the car back to Colorado from his shop in Oklahoma.  Steve said we could do the photos if the weather was nice enough to bring P/1015 outside; and fortunately the weather cooperated.  We took alot of photos, some from ground level and some from the back of a 4x4 Ford truck.  It was pretty great to finally get to do the "recreation". 
Kieth Champine did a little "photoshop" magic to the photo I posted.  He removed a manhole cover from the foreground, and some curbing, sidewalk, and grass from the upper right background.  The cars were in the shade, so he removed some of the shadow from the photo so the color of the cars would show better.  He also removed a decal from the driver's side fender of P/1015 that doesn't look "period correct".  Yes, we should have moved the cars a little bit to eliminate the manhole cover, but we were running out of daylight. 
Everyone that was there enjoyed the experience and thought it was pretty cool to be "recreating" the photo.  I think it turned out great!!!

Thanks,
Eric
