I have been unable to secure some time to take photos of the many new models to join my collection. The weather here in Michigan, being what it is, is just too cold for this old body to be outside for a photoshoot. My photos inside have just not measured up to what I am looking for. With that, I finally purchased a Photo Tent to see how that works. Here is the 1st one to be shot.

I have the black one and LOVE it!  White suits the car very well too.

Congratulations on a fine Studebaker model, John, but more congratulations on your fine photography.  When I clicked to enlarge, the Studebaker really came alive.  You have raised the standards of the forum in photography.   Well done.

Thanks for the compliments, it is easy to take good photos when the subject matter is so outstanding.

It looks like a 1:1 parked on a glass floor! Nice pics John.
