    That is a very nice gold. Really good choice on shade. :thumbs2:

    The did put some sharp colors on these cars, and I always like seeing the varieties.

    When you are ready to take some more pics, photos tend to come out really good closer to sunrise and sunset for color, rather than when the sun is high. Can't wait to see more.
