"Instantly recognisable as a piece of american history"

Probably not after a 3rd gen then... not yet anyway...

First, a little background about me. I'm a photographic model living in Essex. You can view my online portfolio at Net Model but please be warned, it does contain nudity! I'm also an aspiring photographer.

That was enough for me to look

Wonder if i can trailer the poncho

I've contacted her and asked her what kind of motors she's after . . . Will let you know . . . . .

Giblets · July 05, 2006, 07:01:59 AM

Fired her off this e-mail:

Seren,

Saw your note posted on the AACUK Forum regarding a photo shoot you are planning using American cars, and would like to volunteer my car if it's of any interest.

I live and work in Hertfordshire so I'd be fairly local too. I believe a mate of mine (Dean Witham) has also PM'd you through the website and is keen to help. No doubt some other members of our club (MKB American Car Club) would be keen to assist.

Anyway, I have attached 2 pics of my wheels (not exactly classic 50's or 60's Americana) but nevertheless an increasingly popular choice of modern 80's classic. She won best 80's car at the AACI Spring Nationals this year, so is in very good nick for a 20 year old! It's a 1986 Chevy Camaro IROC-Z.

Hope I can be of help.

Oooooooooo Senior, Eh ?

Yeah, I'd agree with that.

Giblets · July 05, 2006, 07:05:33 AM

Doubt it's what she's after, but it's that or an Audi A4 for me!

Roadkill · July 05, 2006, 07:11:03 AM

Better to have a alot of cars to choose from, though . . .

Nah

Titsy · July 05, 2006, 08:22:59 AM

I hope you're volenteering the Duster Chris....

Giblets · July 05, 2006, 08:25:49 AM

Any model lying on the Duster in the sun would melt onto it!

I would but Dusters going back to the barn at some point this week (when the rain lets off) and staying there for the foreseeable future.

55starchief · July 05, 2006, 09:20:15 AM

Need her to come down to the barn

i'd offer the stang, but it sounds like she'd be looking for more 1966 than 1996

i dont think anything shoults america to the layman more than either a late 50's caddy or an early mustang

Roadkill · July 05, 2006, 07:19:23 PM

Got a reply . . She's interested in the Caddy (of course

) - awaiting further details . . . . . .

Oh well looks like it will hav to be another time for the poncho. What about the humber

im sure that would make for an interesting picture or the BBQ

Roadkill · July 06, 2006, 05:10:12 AM

There's another "opportunity" for the Cadillac possibily coming up . . . . But I'm keeping quiet on that one for now . . . .

Giblets · July 07, 2006, 08:42:12 AM

My lack of a response from her indicates that indeed, 80's cars shall remain unloved.

She's not expecting a shiny Caddy is she Deano?

Oh, no.

In fact she said paint faded ones are better as they haven't got to worry about leaving finger marks on them !!!

Giblets · July 07, 2006, 08:49:49 AM

She'll love you then mate.

The models could even have a dance on it. Tastefully of course (cough!)

Roadkill · July 07, 2006, 08:51:40 AM

We can but keep our fingers crossed . . . . . .
