Ronnie Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I stopped by my cousin's house a few days ago to drop off his Christmas card. He's 90 and lives alone so I like to spend as much time with him at Christmas time as I can. Before I left I took a couple of photos that I'm sharing with you guys just to revive this thread. They didn't turn out too good but maybe you will like them. If you have any holiday season photos of your Reatta please post them here. We all like photos! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retiredmechanic74 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 This is my 1989 Reatta. Not many lookers at the car ( used to be all white) until I painted it like this. Sense then I have gotten offers to buy it on a number of occasions. Once even well waiting for a red light and I had a woman follow me until I pulled over and she got out of her car and asked If I would sell it.. I'm thinking of trying another color combination (this one is becoming dull) not sure what It's going to be yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 This is a photo that forum member @Machiner 55 sent to me for a Reatta calendar I did a few years ago. It is a beautiful Reatta photo and most appropriate for the weather the U.S. is having right now. I hope John sees it and starts posting here again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 This is a photo of forum member DAVES89's Reatta coupes. This photo was in the 2014 Reatta calendar I did. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) Thanks Ronnie and I still have that calendar above my desk. It's not accurate but I like the pictures. That picture was taken shortly after I bought the Black [Spring of 2009] as you can see by the license plate which is from Minnesota. I hadn't bought the 'vert yet [5 years later] which is why there are only the two in the picture. Still have all the Reattas I titled to myself. The other two were bought and parted out...

Ronnie Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Dave, I think this is a photo you sent me of your convertible. If it's not I can delete it. Beautiful car! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89RedDarkGrey Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 My Snowmobile. With good, knobby "Snow tires" installed- Reatta are a Beast. Dead cold way below zero *F of Upstate, NY Winter, and it starts right up, beautiful heat- and handles like an Artic Cat Lynx 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, That's it, although it's mostly my wife's car. Her part is the driving and mine is the maintenance [But there really hasn't been much].

Wow! I never knew how striking gold pinstriping would be on black paint, that is possibly one of the best color combos on the Reatta IMO! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroJohnny Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Since west TN is coated in snow right now, i took these photos a few days back before it got all snowy, I can never give up the opportunity for a little Reatta photo shoot 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Another beautiful Reatta from the 2014 ROJ Reatta calendar I did. This one belongs to forum member 89 Maui. In a sea of red Reattas this color really stands out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 This is another photo from the 2014 ROJ Reatta calendar. This beautiful white Reatta is owned by forum member KDirk. The white paint with the white side moldings and chrome wheels is one of my favorites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89RedDarkGrey Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Like the "Pinstripe delete" option- was it also an option for colored moldings? Bumper rub strips? Mirrors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I really like this photo. These Reattas belong to forum member ZoltanB. I wonder what happened to Zoltan? He's not posted on the forum for a long time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Yeah it's been awhile since he has been here. He is the one that got me started on wooden steering wheels. I don't know if I should thank him or... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 I thought this BBQ place was a good backdrop for a Reatta photo. The building could have been the inspiration for MrEarl's Buick Sales & Service garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Jimbo Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 One thing I noticed about most of your photos Ronnie is the choices of background. You definitely think outside of the box. You have challenged me to consider the background when I shoot again. Thanks for the insight . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just about right... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 The rusty house on the left is an ice cream stand. That's my kind of house! I was disappointed that it was closed for the winter. If MrEarl sees this photo he will be wanting to build an ice cream stand next to his garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 We had really nice weather today considering it's February. Temperature was about 76 degrees. The wife wanted me to do a few house repairs but I thought it was stupid to waste a nice day doing that so I took off and drove my Reatta instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
