There are times, I wished it would have been I that started or created a phrase or slang catch term that became popular, considering the flack I get over it at times.
Although I may have been the one that used the term Hooker in describing a tow truck , commercially, it unfortunately wasn’t me who came up with the cb slang term, but if I had, I could have made zillions of bucks over it.
But I degrees.
The thought by those not in the know or at least hip to what we constantly struggle to get forth on TV and in print, with having gals pose with rides and birds, doesn’t get translated. If I pitch the idea of posing with a bike for example to a prospective gal, the immediate thought to or by her is, some gal in a bikini. Sadly to say I wouldn’t do that in a trailer truck full of sundaes. First of all the concept is over used, 2 its trashy, and 3 , most women of normal looks, don’t look good in a bikini. And those big tall heels, not around any custom paint job I applied.
The idea is more to have the gals threads match that of the basic era, or theme of the vehicle being photographed. If it’s a 50’s custom, bobby sox, poodle skirt, and sweater would look good along with a pony tail for hair dressing. If it’s a mid 60’s muscle car, what we called hot pants, a great looking blouse, go-go boots, and a spiral perm. Custom tow truck? How about form fitting coveralls, big rig? How about something that says genuine kountry, tight Wrangler Jeans, or a HeeHaw honey look? In essence , there’s ways to make a shot look hot, and sensual, without being trashy porn. What your trying to do, is enhance the look of the ride your capturing on film , not detract from it. Oh and the custom Chopper? Nothing like form fitting full dress leathers. This way both Mom and her guys enjoy, not having to have the magazine or whatever being sent out to the garage so you don’t embarrass the local bridge club when they show up.
If your going to do interaction between say the owner with the model, like our toew kiss, for a toew truck works, or a smooch like Arthur Fonzerellie from Happy Days works, but not a super drawn out wet one. Make it tasteful.
That’s what we try to do always.
Try to get that idea across to those not in the understanding, might as well push a brick outhouse over on em, for all the good it does.
It only takes one or two gals to step up , try it out to show what we have in mind. Many get spooked, from pre misconceptions, but like many other things misconceptions are hard to redirect. If even one can.
Last night on my cold walk that brought my hacking cough back, I got to thinking on things, first , after further consideration , LexiBelle will rest nicely here behind Ricky’s place until summer then its full tilt revision for operational status come winter 2014. But in the meantime, I’m taking the full year of 2013 to get this redid version of KTOW/KDXB up and running, that is after all what I moved back to this gall darn bassackwards stuck up place to begin with. If it was strictly to tow or fly could have done that in Wyoming. It was by agreement that HazzardAyre/Dixie-Diesel Radio needed two hubs. The one in Evanston, and the one in Buhl.
FYI, the view of the club, while apprehensive is also one of a one more try. With the terms being, I show them something solid this run out, they dump money into it, hordes of money into it. If not, we do it simple, and not include the public, just strictly club members, and farm out extra enhancements to our Utah charter.
What the rest of the future holds, know one really knows, but what’s on the HUD of the club, that in my next entry.
Have pleasant Toew Dreams.
