If anyone's interested, why not make this a detail thread for posting shots of the little things on a car that set it off, make it interesting, unique, etc.

Nice body work on the '57, and where does the beer come out on that rat rod? :smile:

From rat rods to rat finks and back to the antenna...:biggrin:

One of my favorite things was when the newer VW guys (Mk4) did Audi A4/A6 door handles. The subtle change was huge in cleaning up the lines of the car.

Love these images!

That mirror looks carbon fiber-ish and the PBR cap has some 3D going on. Did you help that along in post?

That odometer is a serious detail... :smile:

EDIT: Is that mileage real?

Both of those shots have a slight touch in pp'ing, but only in contrast and color. I don't fake DOF or motion. They are pretty close to what came out of the camera.

He wishes lol. I think the car had 56K on the clock before this full restore, which replaced the odometer.
