NJ area - Need to take picture of White GT for website

Hi -

First time posting, and here's why- I am a designer re-doing a website for a company called World Class Driving.

www.wcdriving.com

They let you drive 5 superexotics for a day for $1,295.00. (Gallardo, SLR McLAren, Ferrari, etc.) AND a Ford GT. It's a pretty cool idea.

So, as i mentioned, I am doing thier site, and I have an idea for the homepage; a 'fanned" out shot of the 5 Supercars. I have 4 of the 5 cars shot, except the GT. Unfortunately, someone recently banged up the front of the GT pretty badly, and it is out of commission until it get's repaired. I am told that parts are hard to get from FORD, and the repair will take quite a while, and the GT is being replaced by a Porshce gt3 and a Noble M400 for now.

My problem is, I HAVE to get this site done, and the main homepage is stuck until I get a Ford GT Shot. World Class Driving can't help me, because the one GT is the only one they own -

Is anyone in the NJ (Howell- central Jersey) area with a White / with Blue striped GT That I could see for 10 minutes and shoot a few pictures of? I can't find any at any dealerships, or anywhere around here.

• I would not physically have to touch the car.
• No driving necessary
• Just a few specifically positioned "still" shots
• I'd come to you/or vice versa - whichever is easiest
• You'd be able to see your car on the main page of www.wcdriving.com !
• I'd throw you a hundred bucks for your trouble

Ok - thanks guys!!! If anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it!

Nobody?

Hello Jerry,

Good luck with your project. Since there are only about 4,000 Ford GT's worldwide, and some are just sitting in garages being stored, you might consider expanding your color options - it's not like there are a whole bunch of white ones sitting around in NJ, or any particular state for that matter (except maybe CA or FL).

Plus, it's only been a day, and only about 60 people have seen your post.

Again, good luck, I wish you well!

Someone with a white/blue will "roger up" on your post in time (not everybody on this site visits everyday). But, like Syco suggested, you may find the car you want is not exactly "in your back yard".

Mebbe you could shoot ANY color GT and just tweek the colors in the photo if it came to that? :shrug

What about using one of the many pictures that already exist on the site?

I have a white GT and live in Bucks County Pa, if you want to come here, I will let you photograph the car.

take a picture of the back of the cars you have(including the wrecked white gt)
i think the backs are much more impressive on some of the exotics !!!!

Duh ... good point, wasn't thinking. That said, there may be someone who'd agree to let their photo be used.

Thanks Guys -

There was a Ford GT that showed up at a Car Dealership near me that I was amzingly lucky to snap some pix of - Furlong, thanks for the offer - can I assume you live near Edison Furlong road? I actually live in Chalfont -

Hey Rob (from Gotham) - I will tell Jean Paul yo usaid hi - the new WCD site will be up in September - it will be leaps and bounds past the current one -

Thanks again, Guys - I really appreciate your help, and your offer Furlong, but luckily, a White/blue GT "fell" into my lap at the precise right time -

Lucky.

After 2 years on the waiting list, and having a friend who's an elected official of PA bump me up, I received my one hour ticket to walk through the "furlong" museum and viewed the bike in person. Unfortunately, no cameras were allowed, but I can assure you the avatar does not do the bike justice. It's a monster.
