Looks good. Are the spot lights below the headlights linked to the steering mechanism and thus follow the wheels direction?

Yes, the lights follow the wheels direction - never saw this before ... Thank you for your kind comment !

Nice shots -- looks like a great place to exercise a camera. (Sometimes I feel cars today, while sleek and loaded with technology, just aren't as interesting as they once were years ago!)

the 1948 Tucker had a central headlight that followed the front wheels.

@DWThomas Thank you ! You are right - modern cars don't interest me as much as the old ones.

Interesting to compare these images to the ones of other cars you took with the Fuji camera and Portra film. The lighting also seems quite a bit different on these, maybe brighter? All are nice photos of some great cars.

@jstout Thank you for commenting !
Those Fuji photographs on Porta were captured under almost overcast skies - the photographs with Ektar were caught on a sunny, bright day under large trees - I got no meter and it was kind of tricky for me to get the right exposure.

Another one from the same day - Bronica ETRSi with Zenzanon 75mm and Ektar 100 :

@HiHoSilver Thank you, Mr, Silver ! To be honest - there are just as much exposures I failed completely ...
