[FWDLK] Go Ahead, Make My Car...



Tony was good enough to loan me his Exner pic, so that I could make a
digital copy of it (in 11x14"; it graces my office, matted & framed).

Tony, my camera shop removed the offending 'power-pole', from the
background.

Now, for the point (ah yes, the POINT) of all this: over on the FWDLK
website a guy, with the tatoo'ed deltoid, in his avatar, Mark, in the
General Discussion Board's threads, has posted some literature that he
has collected, in relation to his 57 PLY (forget the thread-title).

As part of his colection, he has a CHRY advertisement, which was taken
at the time of Tony's "offiicial" Factory  FWDLK portrait, but MARK'S
advertisement has EX appearing a FEW MOMENTS before (probably) TONY'S
"portrait" image was taken, as the advertisement pic was snapped with EX
having both hands in his suit pockets (appearing to play 'pocket-pool',
from his posture/pose), and with his head straight-up facing the camera.

Also, the sun was hidden behind a typical March cloud-cover.

In TONY'S pic, EX has removed his right hand (musta made his 'shot') and
it is extended straight-down, as if he's gonna pull a quick-draw, on
the camera man.

Also, his head , now if cocked to the left, as if saying : " Go ahead,
Make my CAR"....

AND, the sun has peaked thru the clouds, giving EX a sort of sinister
(instead of insipid, as-earlier) appearance, with his eyes in shadow.

What I can't figure out, is why the cars' rear ends  were grouped around
him, as they were.
>From camera-left, you see the Dodge, then the DeSoto.

Over on the near-right, you see part of an IMP fin, the next to it, a
CHRY.

Directly behind EX is a full-on rear end of a PLY.

In MY opinion, the IMP should have been placed fully behind EX, as it is
a cleaner design than the PLY, & it is most-seen, of all the cars, & it
is the most luxiurious.

Anyway, go over to the FWDLK website & check out the ad-pic  that DIDN'T
quite 'make' it, as the Official Corp Forwardlook Portrait!!!
