What did you try that was different? I like the set a lot, how do you go about getting that washed out vintage look?

I tried some new lighting tricks, I did a lot of processing in Photoshop with the tones and curves.

None I hope to get 3 softboxes soon. All lighting used was from the lights in the garage. What are Gels if you don't mind me asking.

You didn't take a photo of the entire car?

Also, gels are things you put over a strobe to modify the color of the light, or to change the color to be in line with incidental light.

It is my neighbors and yes he allowed me to drive it since he wanted to pay me but I would not accept it since we were good buddies so I drove it instead. I have a video of me starting it up.

Here it is if you are interested:

sweet car! Im jealous you got to drive it! :-D Shot wise just not working for me for some reason, devils in the nitpicky details. Seeing garage door, reflections on glass over dials, warning label on sun visor etc. Since its your friends car can you shoot it again?
