Default Re: Camaro protypes and more

The next several are just some standard advertising shots that I thought were pretty neat.

Picture #1 pretty standard type shot appealing to women. Notice the black painted engine emblems on the side.



Picture #2 used in Space-Saver spare tire ad.



Picture #3 one of my favorites for some reason used for the hugger campaign.



Picture #4 What better shot of a wide O taken in 69 are you likely to find.



Picture #5 is another of my favorites. Who could resist those puppy dog eyes. It’s just so innocent and appealing.



Picture #6 then you see this and all of a sudden that innocent looking Z gets all scary on you. Where is Norman Bates when you need him.

Thanks.

The originals are extremely clean for the most part. I scanned some of the detail areas at 2400dpi (scanners will go over 19k dpi) to blow them up. The Caribe emblem for example on teh car is only about 1/8th of an inch tall but is clear enough to get that blowup. If I had the negatives could have made a poster out of the emblem alone.

Always looking for more original pics. Should be buying more shortly with any luck.
