Default Cars From Lancashire, Want Some Pics??

Hi guys, I have been asked to help get a new magazine style blog off the ground by doing some photography for them.

This is what the owners of the blog say:

"The aim is to give the UK modified car culture the international exposure it undoubtedly deserves by providing enthusiasts with professional quality photography and journalism when covering events as well as featuring cars.

So far we have on board published writers from Retro Cars Magazine, Retro Ford and Performance Ford. We are also in discussion to get racer86 founder and Retro Cars writer Rob Richardson on board. On top of that we have a couple of freelance photographers who have also been nationally published providing us with pictures"


So, I need some nice modified cars from this area for features.

Anything considered but I would like to see some nice Cossies.

Please contact me on here or email me adztherat@hotmail.co.uk

My flickr is here if you want to see my style of pics..... www.flickr.com/adztherat



Mods, if this is in wrong section please move.


Thanks

Adz

The white Escort is stunning! I would be willing to travel to Blackpool to shoot it if you are interested?

Scooby is nice too, will look better when the new rims are on.

That would have been me mate, drove it all the way there and back as well, love it.
Current spec is just under 400hp running siemen injectors on a T34 set up and mapped by NMS. Shell is 6linked with a full Retromotorsport roll cage welded in. It was basically a racing car which managed to get put thru an MOT and road tax lol.

Couple more pics
