Hi there,
I am desperate to find an amazing vintage bug or volvo or beetle for a photo shoot on tuesday of this week, downtown portland (probably).  It is for the pendelton catalogue.  A model might be leaning against it, or opening the door, but probably not driving it (unless it's a few feet).  We only need it for a few shots, but would like it around for 4 hours or so, as each shot takes an hour.

i would love black or silver or red, blue, possibly other colors.  you can email me pics at emilyhenderson@mac.com or call me at 646-522-9926

thanks so much

  • I figured since it wasn't being used I'd try it on

Paul has a perfect bug for this shoot, actually so does Steve, and for that matter Matty.
No really...I do it for a living.

I didn't look twice 'cause I figured they wanted something like Jeremy's car. Anyway, I read
the update this a.m. and thought wtf..I'll send her some pictures. I did, and she wants to use
my bug! Go figure. I'll have a famous car. :o

It was pretty tough alright, but somebody had to step up. I didn't think to take my camera,
and my phone takes nasty pictures, but here's a couple. They seemed happy with the shots
and the car, and the weather was cold but it didn't rain. All in all a very interesting day.

One quick update. These pictures are for the Fall catalogue, which will be available in July. No pictures
will be released until then. If you Google " pendleton catalogue", you can see where to order one when
it comes out. Emily said the plan is to use one of these on the cover, and if she can get copies she'll
try to get me some.

thats cool as hell Steve.  for real


Now for the joke. when you go to sell it put it up on the samba for like 15g with the pic of it in the mag.  everyone on there seems to bump the price up about 10 to 20g once its in a magazine. :)

 8) truth lol

I tried, but these aren't car people. They just wanted a car, so I told 'em just to be sure it looked
pretty in the pictures.  ::)
