Hi everyone, Love the forum, full of fantastic cars so i've just registered myself. At Practical Performance Car (www.ppcmag.co.uk) we're always looking for new feature cars and cars for our 'Readers' Cars' pages. So whatever you drive, from a Chevette to a Chevrolet, E-mail some high-res pictures pictures and the story of your car to me - ed@ppcmag.co.uk, and we'll get it in the mag! Look forward to hearing from you.
All the best, Ed Hall

My old 100E was in there in one of the early issues, and my V8 Victor as was a mates V8 pro street Scimitar. Mind you Max Power also did a bit on it too (basically they rehashed the eBay listing for it...). But I don't think he's boasting about that.

Hi guys, keep the cars coming! As i said we're looking for possible feature cars as well as 'Readers' Cars'. But if you haven't finished your project yet and it's all still a big pile of panels, suspension and welded patches then please send them in for our 'Readers' Projects' pages. Everyone loves a good garage scene, and what's more inspirational that seeing other peoples' projects gradually taking shape. E-mail ed@ppcmag.co.uk. Thanks!
All the best, Ed

Really don't think ANYTHING I own is relavant to PPC.
Certainly not when it comes down to the numbers. And that's what's really important, right??
