It took me a while. Both the modelling and the photography are excellent, in my opinion. _________________ Central Jersey VW Society

I had found this on Hemmings. Since then there are a gazillion comments, some praising its high quality, others still thinking it's real. But near the end someone posted this color photo taken from the opposite end:
That one is obviously a model. The B&W photo is much more realistic. Very nice work by someone! _________________ Gone but not forgotten: 1950 Hoffman split (restored in 1966) - another 1950 Hoffman split (restored in 1996) |
