Do you have a project under construction?

I'm also a little light on submissions for our Work in Progress section. Have a car torn apart for a restoration? Doing some work yourself? Knee deep in a rebuild? Send me some high-resolution photos plus a little description. Just think, fame can be just a few mouse clicks away. I can be easily reached at david@classicmotorsports.net.

Got it--thanks. Any others with a car torn into a million little pieces? If so, grab the camera, snap a high-resolution photo, and send it my way. Don't forget to tell us a little about the project, too.

I have my Fiat 500 completely taken apart and sand blasted. I will send you some pics of mine also.

Thanks. Don't forget, high-resolution, please! Our minimum spec is 1280x960 pixels, but bigger is better.

Having finished the Jamaican recently I am not looking for any new projects.

I do not lack for work however, as the rest of the fleet required constant upkeep. High tension leads for the CV8, drain old gas on the Lambo, some repainting on the Interceptor.....full time job.

Were the images that I sent large enough? I can re-send if not. I got a bounce back message from your email and was not sure that you had gotten everything. Thanks Brett

I think I got my Fiats confused, Brett. Can you resend? And I just need one good overall shot. Thanks.

Resent the 59 Fiat 600 project, let me know if it is what you need. thanks Brett

Yep, got it. Thanks. Anyone else have a project to submit?

I now have sent mine. I hope the email is not too large. Let me know if so.

By the way, the plus side of working on a small car is that you can use full size mattress to roll the body on. No rotisserie needed.

I got that Fiat, too.

David, I'm on vacation right now, will be back on Sunday. Have a Triumph 2000 Mk. I Estate wagon (yes, wagon) torn up and will be happy to supply pictures... :-)

That's fine. The Work in Progress item is a running bit in the magazine, so there's really no deadline.
