Talking Rothmans Rally 911 Tribute Car / Ferris Bueller House / RUF RSR

In March of 2011 I had the opportunity to shoot a very unique vehicle in a very unique location. A friend of mine had just finished building his second Rothmans Rally 911 Tribute car and wanted to do a photo shoot of it, so we began planning. We started tossing around different location ideas and finally settled on one: Cameron's house from the film Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

A few phone calls later and the location was locked in and dates were set.

I wish I could go back and reshoot these knowing what I know now, but I'm pretty happy with how they turned out overall. They were featured all over the internet, and even graced the pages of Total 911 Magazine earlier this year.

The property was for sale at the time and still had everything set up in the garage area, which made for some interesting photos. The previous owner had a very hefty vintage car collection before he passed away, there were quite a few photos of them on the walls still.

Along with the Rothmans car my friend owns a very unique RUF 935 which we took a few dual shots with, those are below after the Ferris Bueller House ones.

There are a ton more photos on my page here:

Enjoy!

This would be a very nice living room piece!

Awesome! And if you kicked THAT car out the back window, it would just land on all fours and drive away!
