as i understand it.... the photographer 'owns' the photos, and can do what he likes, without permission. I don't think you have a right to the pics, Randy, but i wouldn't be surprised if Shelby licensing had a problem with it!
i guess just enjoy the products with your car, and maybe they'll give you a free tshirt.
 the best way to avoid this, is to post signs, guard the car with 'no photos' of my car, kinds of comments.
oh well! Kristen

I think that the photographer owns the picture of the Cobra, but if he chooses to commercialize it for $$, he may required to gain consent as well as to pay compensation to the owner of the subject. |

Contact the site, maybe they will comp you a mug or Tee?

Like I said when I posted this, I was just curious, I'm not out for any compensation.
I've had pictures taken of the car at another show and they used it on their website to promote their next car show, I took that as a compliment as I do this.
But I might ask them for a free mug! 
Thanks for the replies!
Randy

Nope they can't use them without a release (they're profiting off the image of your property)...
The only exception to this is news publications. (sort of)
Personally, to me it's just bad manners to not at least ask.

Once you choose to put your car in a show...
I think you can't go putting signs all over it or around it saying "No pictures."Most guys making t-shirts, coffee mugs & stuff will just obscure your front license plate so it might be hard to prove your red 427 Cobra is the one on the cup or shirt.

This, then, raises the question as to the difference between a car show, where you exhibit your car for all to see, and a race, where your car is available for all to see and photograph. I see race photos all the time that are for sale. Are these all used and sold with permission??? I don't think so.
Interesting question....we need the opinion of a copyright attorney!
