Starting at image 122 running to image 150, I have included a number of images processed from Nikon RAW files, that are formatted either full page or as 2-page spreads.
Images 151 to 157 are interior detail shots of the Ford GT focusing in on the optional McIntosh audio system.
Images 158 to 166 are shots of gadgets and gear taken along on the trip, details are listed in the 1550-word version of the text below.
Additional images and supporting materials such as maps and scans of things like the Nurburgring track ticket follow the gadgets and gear, images 167 to 175.
Images 176 to 178 are downloadable Word files of three different version of the text.
Finally from image 179 on, I will upload PDFs of each version of the feature as soon as I get them from my editors along with their permission to post the PDFs prior to publications. This will give other editors examples of how to present this material in features of all different lengths, from as little as 5 pages to more than 8 pages.

 | 31.Downtown Disney Muscle CarsPretty damn spectacular show yesterday at Downtown Disney, possible event coverage for Musclecar Enthusiast, Mopar Enthusiast, Mustang Enthusiast, and Pontiac Enthusiast as well as multiple feature car possibilities for all Amos titles.
I've made some notes where appropriate; guys, let me know if I can produce news/event coverage as well as any cars you might be interested in for features.
Some of the shields are incorrect...the Disney event manager says he will get me the graphics files for the shields by Thursday. Might make a cool graphic touch for any possible event coverage or news items as well as for possible features.
I'll be in touch but don't hesitate to contact me first.

 | 97.Crystal Cove July 2006Every Saturday morning, well before sunrise, Southern California’s car cognoscenti descend on the stucco-encrusted Crystal Cove Promenade strip mall overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the famed Pacific Coast Highway just south of the Corona del Mar section of Newport Beach, home to some of the world’s most expensive real estate. They vie for 200 or so select parking spots in what has become the “in” place each week; classic hot rods, muscle cars, vintage cars of every stripe, exotics of every color and even an expanding selection of top-tier tuner cars all race for the most prime real estate. By 6 AM, all the choice spots are taken and the overflow is relegated to the outlying parking lots where dozens of Porsches, Ferraris and Lamborghinis park among the spectator Mercedes, Audis, BMWs and Lexuses, all as common in this part of the world as Accords, Camrays and 300Cs are almost anywhere else.
(Complete text can be downloaded below.)

 | 98.2005 Redline MustangEvery now and then I get lucky and get a really special vehicle photographed first, before any other photographers or magazines, in this case a 2005 Mustang tricked out with an updated Eleanor look with an extra special hook. In this case the hook is a prominent movie tie-in, for the upcoming car flick Redline, due in theaters sometime later this fall. While this Mustang is not the primary star of the movie, it gets a lot of screen time.
Check out the trailers for Redline at:
http://www.redlinethemovie.com/trailers.aspx
This will also be the source for the most up-to-date release information. There are already interviews (clip two) with Stunt Coordinator Johnny Martin (Gone In Sixty Seconds, The Italian Job) which explain that they will be flipping a $400,000 Porsche Carrera GT over a $1,200,000 Ferrari Enzo (and destroying a number of Fiero-based kit cars along the way).
The Mustang is pretty damn cool in its own right, with owner Earl Morehead having installed the first aftermarket Saleen supercharger and having contributed to the installation documentation. And Earl was generous enough to shred a set of rear tires with repeated burnouts under the Interstate 5 flyover in San Fernando, California.
For ICE fans and publications the car is equipped with a stealth Eclipse/Audison/JL Audio system and a Ronaele (Eleanor spelled backwards) body kit combined with a Roush rear fascia that together works in perfect harmony.
Text will be available shortly and with the film opening later this fall, the timing for this feature couldn’t be more perfect. Check out the images here as well as the Redline web site, and let me know your intentions as quickly as possible.
