    There are folks around your area that would shoot pics man. Just gotta go to meets and approach folks with a camera to take a few of your car.

    You mean the D2X? To be honest, I cant justify spending an extra two grand on top of the two grand for the D200 for an extra 2 megapixels and wireless transfer capabilities . lol

    yeah, well he is a professional photographer/writer for car magazines and used to take pics for Porsche ads. In his basement he has an archive with a few million pictures he took of every Le mans, indy, daytona, seebring, etc. race from 1970-present. its amazing! he said someone offered $1 million for his archive a few years ago and he didnt take it (but he regrets it now).

    hrmm...i'll have to see about his 70's archive. I've been trying to dig up pics of my dad's '56 356 Speedster...won races at Homestead, Daytona, Sebring, and the airport in Key West...both parents were winners of the Bay Bottom Crawl too.
