    Great idea henk, there's an '82 sport quattro, an '89 Camaro and (I think) and 60's Bronco too - I'll try to do the Quattro first but I'm only just a beginner in photography so be warned.

    EDIT: Either that or you're talking about lower class cars and I just didn't get it?

    you can put in any car you want, Americans can come up with an common Ford Fairlane or whatever, an 89 Camaro would be OK, but remember, there has to be a story to it.

    Great - I'll look into the history of the Camaros

    And just one more thing - if you're basing your report on only just one car of it's kind, should there be a report of it's history as a car or it's own individual history? I sense a good storyline with the quattro (it might be possible that it was a former rally car - as the only other of it's kind was the Group B S1) so if I meet up with the owner then I'll definetly ask. It'll have to be on thursday though as school is keeping me very busy.

    personal touches will add to the interest of the car.

    none of both, but others are free to post, as long as they present the pics together with a story. That makes the corner different from Matt's hide-out
