I had a phone call last night from Richard at Practical Classics, he’s doing a photo shoot and buying guide article on the fiat 126, they are looking for a standard early 126. I offered mine but they didn’t want white . Great opportunity, they will pay costs, supply you with the photos and you will get to see your wonderful car in practical classics to cherish forever!!!
Folks,
I write the buying guides for Practical Classics and the next one I’ve been asked to do is on the 126. I need to find a tidy example, which I can put into the studio to photograph for the piece. Can you please get in touch with me ASAP if you’ve got a car that we can put in the studio – it needs to be in good condition and essentially to standard spec. The spec itself doesn’t matter, but something reasonably brightly coloured would be perfect as it's photographed on a white background in artificial light – so no white cars can be used and I also try to avoid black or silver, although we can use those if necessary. There will only be studio photography of the car, so there will be no dynamic shots taken at all.
If you think you might be able to help, could you drop me a line please, ideally directly to me at [email protected], attaching photos if you want to. In return for the use of your car (which nobody but you will drive), you'll get your costs paid, a set of the pictures (a studio shoot isn’t cheap!) and your car in the magazine.
You'll need to be able to give up a few hours to take your car to either a studio in Derby or Hampshire. It would obviously be best for us to get someone reasonably close to one of these locations.
Thanks for your time,
Richard Dredge
