American car photo shoot/display at the Kelpies,Falkirk

[Ponyvettes]

Hi all,

I have arranged a photo-shoot with the stunning Kelpies as a back-drop for a few American cars in the area for this Sunday 11th.May@8.30AM until 10AM and was wondering if anybody on here would be interested in coming along for a gander.
The time is a bit of a pain in the arse granted but it's due to the health and safety nonsense we are all too aware of in this day and age.
Should have about 10 cars on show namely Corvettes, a 70's Dodge Challenger and various Mustangs ranging from an immaculate 65 right up to a current Shelby GT 500 with all of 662 BHP!
Pretty much the same car Jeremy Clarkson did the Wembley to San Siro,Milan challenge on Top Gear not all that long ago
All welcome.

Eric

Would loved to have come along to this but already have plans, thanks for offering! If it happens again let me know.

look forward to seeing the pictures!

Sounds good - will try and pop down for a look! Spent too much time watching 'Fast N' Loud' recently so will be good to see some American muscle in the metal!

Gutted only just hearing of this. At an American and custom show on up at Kinross same day

Would have loved to turn up in the f150

Wish I'd known about that as well! Really need somewhere that lists all events going on.

Thanks for the interest guys.Just got the go-ahead to put this together on Tuesday afternoon hence the short notice.The guy who had the final say if I could put the cars on the lower plaza was on holiday till Tuesday so it was a bit of a rush.
Will ask about the possibility of putting on a display somewhere else in the Helix park at a later date with hopefully more yanks.
Will get pix up ASAP.
This is as close as I could get previously.

I'll almost certainly pop along for a bit. The time is actually good for me, moving flat on Sunday and picking the Van up from Faliirk at 9am.

A '65 Mustang is in the dream car list

[tvrolet]

What about an American bike?

[ViperPict]

Have to have a collection of Mustang's photographed in front of the sculpture!

I think this is one of the most of impressive pieces of art I have ever seen, BTW.

Not sure if I can make it - most importantly I don't think I would have any time to wash the Camaro - just back from a run up to Perth and busy all day tomorrow! If I get a chance to wash her tomorrow and manage to get some time off for good behaviour I'll try and get along.

I'll pop along in the Escalade with my girlfriend....it's nothing special though compared to cars mentioned above.

[DH 46]

Are the numbers fixed for the `shoot? I have a 520HP C6 Z06 Corvette I plan on bringing.

[Ponyvettes]

You've got a C6 ZO6 and you want to know if the numbers are fixed?Let me think about it.Right, thought about it for all of a nano second.
Meet-up pre-the Helix park at McDonalds,Earlsgate roundabout,Grangemouth at 8.15.I'll have a Danish pastry waiting on you. Never seen a Zo6 since I saw them running down the production line in BG.
For the record looking at a cruise to maybe Wallace monument after 10 then possibly more photos and lunch at Airth Castle hotel.
Bring on the Z
Eric.

Black one?Seen it kicking about Falkirk just the other day.

[CamaroSaint]

I'll be there with the 74 Camaro

Yeah, it's black but wasn't me I'm afraid. I was working in Inverness all week and the car was in Glasgow.

[Ponyvettes]

Sounds good guys.8.15 at McDonalds for all interested will be a lot easier if we all enter the park at the same time to gain access to the lower plaza.This was a shoot with a Ferrari that was done just before the Kelpies official opening.Ofcourse will look a lot better with some American presence.....

[CamaroSaint]

Sounds good - have no idea where the park is but can always sniff out a macdonalds! See you there

[Ponyvettes]

McDonalds is right on the same roundabout as the BP service station.It's the roundabout that's at the M9 flyover.
