Yeah, let's go find it! Oh, it's partly your fault for giving me an idea to do this. But no regret!

Very clean convertible. Remember that your pic will get cropped at the ends so the front bumper and possibly the rear will get clipped. The pic needs to show more space for the car.

Seriously, because air-cooled 911's are featured, at least one engine pic like the one below is mandatory. (Although I'm sure there are more entertaining ones out there - this one is almost 100% factory stock.)

Come to think of it, I'd buy a calendar that consisted only of 911 NA & turbo engine pics.

Nice engine! Great idea about engine pics. I'll do it if there's enough interest.

If most of you agree then let's see more engine pics! The pics of engine must be from YOUR car or YOU took the pics. Like I said before...no plagiarized pics.

Cool looking turbo! Already looks clean to me! If you have a high resolution pic we can crop out around the engine bay for close up pic. Something to think about.

Do you prefer just car pics, or cars & people?

What about partially disassembled cars? IMHO, those are some of the most interesting photos.

I understand from your original message that you only want the photos chosen to be e-mailed to you, for now I suppose we are to post candidate photos here?

Assuming that is the case, here are (2) candidate photos, of the many I have in high res of my current 911. I actually have a lower-angle version of the second one that I'll post after I get home.

I like this one better than the other. The other one has too much "glare" from the sun. Maybe others like the sun glare better?

I prefer just car pics. Partially dissambled cars would be fine as long as it's interesting and it gets "approval" from everybody here.

Regarding candidate photos, perhaps I should be more clear...I meant that the pics that are chosen are to emailed to me in high resolution format. You can either post here or email me the candidate pics.

A little Photoshop to exclude the background would be nice.

I have several other shots.

Looks like a lot of photoshop would be required! Please no photoshopped pics except in the license plate area. Cool pic though!
