<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: mockingbird812</div><div class="ubbcode-body">James - On the subject of &quot;bracket photo&quot;, what is the advantage of it over manipulating a single digital photo with software (i.e. photoshop)?

thanks </div></div>

Sam,

Most modern day DSLR's have the bracekting function. Heck, even my 2004 Fuji had it. All you do is have to program it. In the old days (Like James says) it was much more expensive to bracket your photos (film costs). The more pictures that you shoot, the better chances are that you'll get the right one.

HDR photography is a form of bracketing as well, the middle and higher end DSLR cameras take one over exposed, one under exposed and one correctly exposed shot and combines them. Read HERE

Didn't like the ride height of the original springs, they were sagging badly, purchased Bob Harris's springs... looks perfect to me!

Is that an original Endura?

I have to say there are some pretty interesting and funny comments in this thread. First of all the car is absolutely gorgeous!!! I applaud you for not adding the cowl hood and spoilers. Most people (those who THINK they know it all) would've added those items and say all '69 Zs would/should have them. I love the &quot;natural look&quot; of the early cars with the flat hoods---very unassuming. Second, back on page 6 some funny quotes were made concerning aftermarket items. Truthfully, I think I agree for the most part---usually the makers think &quot;close is good enough&quot; AND the makers are NOT the installers and couldn't give a crap whether the stuff fits or not. There are a few private guys making parts and since those parts aren't mass produced and since those guys ARE the installers THOSE PARTS FIT!!! Some of the repro stuff is in it's third and later generation of production which sometimes helps and sometimes doesn't.
GREAT CAR!!! Congratulations!!!

The coolest thing about this car is the fact that James is driving it under its own power for the first time since 1973. 1973! Just a beautiful car, a real purist's Z.
