    Well, I believe this car is actually original, but it's all I got. In the building now occupied by the brew pub, originally they made wooded car bodies for Model Ts, loaded them at the siding next to the building and the train would take them to Detroit. They have some beautifully restored examples inside. Come visit, and I'll take you for a beer. My office is in an identical building to the just to the left.

        Challenging theme, I thought.
        My vote is for Storm.

          First time voter here, but I think Roger's pic best portrays the theme. Voting for Burque73.

            Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                  Voting for trevor as well. I object to the the crop choices: trev's butt, the mirror, and the front tire, but maybe that's just me. Still a superb photograph: the pose, the angle, the lighting, the headlight on. All great.

                          Good theme, produced a variety of shots.
                          And Something to like about every pic.

                          Gustov, ha! one side replicated on the other side.

                          Rich, I thought the steam locomotive sign was the replica...

                          Kerry, Ha! nice idea. ANd I really like the reflection in the tank.

                          Bob, nice pose, yellow bike and yellow flowers, balance in two big trees, interesting item in middle, occupies the eyes/mind, everything in frame all interesting. Not much at all distracting. Nice overall scene. I suspect you looked over that area, and choose that pose.

                          Trev, I like how the main item the bike (the Cooley replica) was posed in the frame to take up large portion of the frame, and the photographer then found a way to get you in there too. ANd nice lighting. I know is a professional photo shoot from your telling the story before. ANd seems like the photographer got down low (or at least the camera), again, to fill frame with bike and better feature the engine. ANd posed with nice uncluttered background.
                          Per our discussions before: he didnt just walk up to you and bike look at bike and hold camera up to his face and click away.
                          I almost dont want to vote for it, knowing is a hired professional photo shoot. But is so good!

                          Vote for Trevor.

                            Got to vote for storm 64, Could I vote for him twice, once for the KZ900 replica and again for the Wright Bros. plane replica?... It just seems logical.

                              Trevor's picture is nice. I also like the way the photographer was able to get his head in the picture too.

                              I vote for Baatfam.

                              Bob's picture and Roger's picture are really the only pictures that are true replicas... I don't think the 1000s was ever a "replica". Not like the Eddie Lawson Replica. I could be wrong, either way, a great picture!
