This "was" one of the suprises for the new GT/CS Registry Book, but I can't do this one without your help.
I am doing a DVD that will be included with the book, in a plastic sleeve on the inside back cover.
What I need are videos sent to me from owners of your GT/CS and '68 HCS cars. You don't need to necessairliy have it "concours perfect",... but "really clean" would be nice, too. Don't worry about Hollywood production quality (although please use a tripod of you could). Just explain who you are, and about your car. If you have security concerns, remove your license plates and frames (if it says what city, etc.) and don't volunteer where you're from. But, again, this is up to you.
Video of GT/CS (HCS) cars undergoing restoration are encouraged and accepted, too!
Try to limit the (useful) footage to about 2-5 minutes, so we can include as many cars and owners as possible. We want this to be fun, and yes, heartwarming to reflect just how special and how loved these cars truly are. You can include creative angles, or shot from another moving vehicle (but please be careful doing that). Remember to talk about the engine size, transmission, colors of the interior and body, and any options. Maybe about how long you've had it, who drives it mostly, etc, etc...
Any video format will work. VHS, SVHS, and DVD formats (all common ones) are acceptable. my brother is a professional videotographer, and has a large editing facility. The completed DVD will be of professional quality, and available ONLY with the book as a set.
For those lucky enough to live in No. Calif, we're planning a group video session in late Summer, at a location to be revealed later (about Late July).
Stay tuned to this thread to more details.
Send your videos to: Paul M. Newitt, P.O. Box 2245, Davis, CA 95617. Please send them to me before August 30th, 2005. (Note: ALL videos become the property of Paul M. Newitt for use on this GT/CS Registry DVD).
The book's target date for completion will be Sept. 2005.
Thanks--and get those cameras rolling!!

p.s. for those who sent still photos only (and don't have access to a video camera), don't fret--we'll shoot those with a video camera--so everyone who sent photos will get on the DVD.
