Looks like a real “project” car to me, Paul. The rendition the film gave gives it an almost HDR look. I like the angle you chose, those eye sockets are just begging to be the stars of the show.
Wow!! That’s quite a hot rod!! I love the composition and tonalities. (And now I know what a V-8 is!)
@Dennis_Plank @Diane_Miller thank you both for the reviews and comments.
Dennis, yes the HUGE headlight sockets are the main objects from this view point. Kind of reminded me of the old 1960 Sprite’s with their “Bug Eyed” headlights they had back then.
Diane, yes the Flat Head V-8 engines were used from the 1920’s thru the 1940’s. By the 1950’s the OHV (Over-Head-Valve) V-8s started production up until this day. I spent 20 years Drag Racing using both Small Block & Big Block Chevy V-8 engines.
What a great find. It’s like a cartoon car carcass. Your editing gives the car a very graphic quality and adds to the character.
