Slick 60's

is it just me, or do the pics in the ebay ad look like a highly detailed model and not a real truck?

Someone's kid must be taking a photography class in high school, judging by the fuzzy surroundings.
Maybe the guy's other kid is taking a paint class...he forgot to mask off the white cab area before he shot on the burgundy.

I think thats just a new way to take photographs. I have a National Geographic where they did a story a year after the Hurricanes in LA. A few of the pictures in those devistated area look like that. Some of them looked like models to. I wondered how they made the photos they had in LA.

could be using a fisheye lens. I live about 60 miles from mabank, if I had the time I would go see for sure. I think it's real, a model would not have the mess of wires under the hood.

I believe that's a digital effect, either in-camera or added afterwards in photoshop. It blurs the surroundings and mimics a shallow depth of field (a small area of the foreground in focus and the rest out-of-focus), like you would see in a shot of a model car or other small object.
