Ok, here's a tough one for the pelican brain trust. I've got a photoshoot with my car coming up, and there's a shot I'd like to recreate. When I was a kid I used to buy all the car magazines, and there was one particular shot that's always stuck in my mind, sort of the ultimate car pic, but I have no idea what magazine it was in, or when it was published (though I can narrow it down), so maybe this will sound familiar to someone here.

I'm pretty sure it was a red Countach, I think driving, though might have been stopped, in a rural country lane or small highway or something, with leaves flying all around it and trees on both sides of the road. It's always been in the back of my mind as the quintessential driving pic (plus autumn is my favourite season). I could be wrong about details - I'm not 100% sure of the colour or even the car. I think it was driving and the pic was taken from behind, but I could be wrong. My main memory is a cool car and leaves flying.

It would've been in either Automobile Magazine, Road and Track or Car and Driver, possibly Motor Trend (those are the only ones I bought, usually), around 1985-1987 probably. I'm guessing Automobile Magazine, because I seem to remember they always had better pictures. I did look on their website, and they don't seem to offer back issues. I went through hundreds of pics on google images and didn't find it.

Anyway, does this sounds familiar to anyone? I know it's a long shot!!

Thanks!
