Yeah John...they were taken professionally for a future magazine spread...I helped him paint the car...those pics were taken on Ocean Parkway, along the south shore....most of the eastbound lanes are gone now since Sandy hit...that whole area is sad!

In high school I had a '69 AMX with the 390 Go Pak option and a 4-speed Man was that thing fast It is definitely one I wish I've never sold

If there were Olds in those photos, they WOULD have hit the calendars! Awesome work...

Great shots and certainly a car worthy of a magazine spread!

Good looking car, AMC built some nice and very fast cars when they were trying to break out of the bluehaired grocery getter mold from the mid 60's to about 72. I had a 69 Rebel back in the day.

Think about these when Big Jerr asks for photos later in the year. These are a shoe in as mentioned above, no doubt. My high school beater would look good in that pic! LOL! Beautiful car. Great stance.

Ugh! My thoughts were everything BUT the rims!

Looks to be an non-Donohue SST with which engine?

I meant this was what he is looking for when you are photographing your car. Try to recreate this type of shot and you are in my friend.

He put the emblems on, but not a real SST. It is a 360 car, though not stock underhood. Totally a PT build. Custom 3-link, Ford 9" 4 wheel discs, stainless exhaust and minitubbed....car also originally had the black hockey stick stripes!
