[done] Thunder & Lightning (1977)

Trying to make my first contribution to here. Great movie with lots of car action and no screen caps on here.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076820/

*UPDATED*

My knowledge of pre 1980 American cars isn't great, so there's a lot of them that I can't identify but I'm sure other people here will be able to, so hopefully someone can fill in the blanks.

1957 Chevrolet Bel Air:

Four stars. This car is the "star" of the film, does lots of insane stunt driving and crazy stunts. Pick whatever cap you think is the best.

Thanks, these will be added when an admin has few time.
Note that the aspect ratio is not right, the pictures are a little too "high" (not much a problem, but if you can for future contributions it is better if you can resize them to proper ratio).

Note for the admin who will process these: do not forget to click on the pics before copying them (if you copy these rather than saving these), as they are resized by the forum to fit in the page.

Yeah sorry, I just read that after I had made this post. My bad.

Good identifications there, the 1972 Cadillac is a "DeVille" I think.

This is my first attempt at correcting aspect ratios. Does http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_121601-Chevrolet-Bel-Air-1957.html look correct?

Are there any tricks to figuring out correct aspect ratio? IMDb only said 35mm http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0076820/technical , and wikipedia said 35mm is 1.85:1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspect_ratio_29 . I wanted to confirm I was doing this right before I went any further.

It looks good indeed :wink:
To be perfect you could remove black borders, even if they are small :whistle: (but as they are small it is not very important if you don't).
There is not really a trick to find the correct ratio, except judging if it looks right. That Chevy pic is good for that: as it is seen from side, wheels must be round.
