Hey guys I am a previous Newcastle VLCT owner, I have done some photos of Brads previous cars, one of them was even used in this websites banner up top when Brad used to own UL05EN. Anyway, I just thought I would offer anyone on here some photos if they want of their own car. I am not a professional or nothing, but I wont do it at a loss to me, so I just request that I be picked up so I dont have to pay for my own petrol and then drop me off, and I will put all the photos on a blank CD that you provide or a USB Flash drive etc. I have included some examples of the photos that I have taken, Like I said, I am not professional, but I am capable of doing some half-decent photos and its free, so whos complaining? Haha. I am located at Toronto, and I am a shiftworker, so all photoshoots will have to work around my work schedule. If you are interested, Email me at [email removed] and include a picture of the car and we will take things from there. Here are some examples of my photos. 1st one is my old VLCT... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Aw thanks mate, Like I said, im no professional, but I will provide some decent pictures. I had it on all aftermarket air suspension for a while, but had too many problems with it, and decided to go back to the standard air suspension setup but I needed new standard bags which cost me $2500, and the initial cost to put it on aftermarket airbags was $3000, so I have spent over $5500 on the suspension but now my car is coming along ok, Just fresh out of the spray booth actually... Found out that the paint damage on the roof was acid rain, and the paint damage on the bonnet was brake fluid, the car had to be taken back to bare metal because of how damaged the old paint was... So now I got it sprayed back in the standard colour, got the damaged lipkit removed, back on standard rims, shaved all the rear badged, put aftermarket red/clear taillights and clear front indicators on, and a billet grill. I am pretty happy with it. BEFORE DURING AFTER... Quote: Originally Posted by ATMO_BT1 Who's Celica is that mate?? Specs?? More pics? Just one of my mates, not sure on any of the specs. I got plenty more pics, but I dont want to post them, its all up to the owner if he wants them posted on the internet and he does not get online, so im not going to go behind his back and post more pics. Although it sounds freakin awesome, and pulls a mad burnout! haha Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Just a quick hint mate. When showing images you have taken, make sure they have a logo or watermark of some sort just for the copyright reason. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I dont OWN the image, I just took it, I dont own the car, I just take pictures of the car. I think watermark is just a way to bignote the photographer I dont believe in watermark or whatnot. But thanks anyway. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

If your photos happen to go anywhere (magazines or anything) and someone else claims it and you dont see a cent out of it or get a mention, dont say you werent warned. Im just warning you from previous experiences. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I think he's just saying be careful where you put your pics, as someone might take them and pass them off as thier own and take any credit, and royalties that may go with it. Like the pics ending up in a SC mag with Jack's name attached to them for example. I don't have to worry though, I take shit photos. Nice pics though, might have to try to get my car up to Scratchley for some pics, if I ever gget it back from the panelbeaters. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
