It'll be in the Readers Yard section.

Please supply some good very hi res photos, at least 300DPI, and about 200 words.

It will be a modified car, nicely done and maybe a bit different, better than the norm.

Practical PERFORMANCE car, not styling, unless the bonnet bulge and arch extensions, etc, were NECESSARY.

Maybe a 5GTT with a 2 litre turbo or a Clio turbo.

Or something else Renault and turbo.

You get the idea. :)

The words will be something like: I've had a 5GTT for years and wanted even more so decided to drop in a 2 litre, turbo'd of course..... I got the help of my pal at bigboostmotors.etc ....

A couple of links might be allowed to pimp you helper / supplier.

I expect you know the format and vernacular they like in that mag and section.

We are wanting to be able to feed a steady stream of interesting cars to both PPC and also PFC, but these may be full features, so we need to have some in a queue ready to go.

So please let me know if you can help and what you have.

It's only Readers Yard, not a full feature.

Thanks :)

For some inspiration / guidance, have a look at the one we did in March 2010 on Lee's GTA:

Andy, it doesn't need to be a fully working car really. Hence the title, Readers Yard.

A few photos and some blurb, as mentioned above, not the full feature at this time.


maybe next month?

Deadline = 28th March.

Any other people want their modified car in the Readers Yard part of PPC?

They've asked for a hot hatch, ideally a Clio or 5GTT.

i'd like to pop my clio forward, whats the lowdown on content for the 200 words? just a bit of spec and blurb about how it all came about? close scrapes etc?:)Yes that looks like the kind of thing :)

Blurb; yes also that's the kind of thing.

Do you any copies of PPC to use as a guide?

You can see the GTA one, above, as a guide.

That's a pretty looking engine bays with all the red in the white and black and shiny metal.

And interesting as it's different, being with the Volvo engine.

Also fully stripped and caged.

Can you throw some words together? They will change them a bit anyway. You could use the part in your 'member info' as a start.
