1973 Black Mach 1 (Editing-Quality Poll and Advice))

Ford FTW · January 13th, 2012, 06:52 PM

A couple of pictures I took and individually edited for the fun of it. The car is my dads. As of now it has the stock 351, so it is all show. But we do have a big-block to put in it that would be 500+ c.i. He has the blue print, it will be a while until we get that put together along with a Trac-Loc rear-end and the transmission needs over-hauled. Something that will happen soon is re-upholstering the interior to all black, it's green now...

The car was green before it was painted by my cousin years ago.
Dads a bit of a procrastinator when it comes to big car projects but it will be done eventually!

The poll is just to give me an idea of which of my editing styles out of these 6 pictures are the most legit. lol I'm no professional but I like taking and editing photos occasionally. Any advice will be appreciated.

I could be bias but I love higher contrast/darker tone so I love 4&5

side note:
beautiful stang though. not many 71-73's roaming around with thier former glory in az and I don't have the funds to restore one, but man i would love to own it.

Yeah, I do understand that everyone has their own opinions with contrast, etc. thanks for the vote.

But I agree there aren't a lot of '71-'73's running around here either. Once again everybody has their own opinion and I honestly think a lot of people aren't too in to these. Although my buddy absolutely loves them, his favorite years. They can be about the meanest looking drag cars if done right, thanks to their long nose and short ass. lol

Honestly my dream stang as I have stated before was a '70 with 69 rear quarters and 05-09 interiors with a 5.4 DOHC

Ford FTW · January 13th, 2012, 07:24 PM

That... would be badass. I wouldn't be surprised if somebody hasn't done that exact resto-mod that you just listed.

i had a chance to get one of those for almost nothing. but didnt really like the how the rear was just so flat/slanted down. but that one looks real nice. makes me wish i would've gotten the one I was looking at.

I voted for number six. I like the desaturation and contrast. Only thing is you've lost some detail in the shadows. If you can dodge that a bit, you'd have pretty sweet shot.

Love your Mach. Im in the process of restoring a 72. I love these cars so much, yours is beautiful!
