If you have a Spider in Atlanta I'd like to take some photographs of specific parts for a publication. If you'd like your car included please PM me. I'm in Sandy Springs.

hoping you are getting pm's instead of responses here ... just to let you know that I would be happy to shoot pics of any thing I have on my car and send you them ... Matt

Same here : I have often thought of writing up some of the things we do to our cars and taking good quality photos as an augment to the regular service manual. Since I haven't gotten very far I'd be more than willing to contribute to one way more knowledgable than me.

Very few - if you have pics, email 'em over. Have to be high resolution, 5 mb or so. You'll get listed in the credits for the pic and the car.

Pictures of FIAT 124 Spiders manufactured between 1966 and 1985. I asked for cars in Atlanta because I'm nearby and there is an "I don't know" factor..I could shoot everything. I have thousands of Spider pictures, but its funny how I'm continuously missing that one image...of a bolt or something.

I can use interior pictures (preferably of unmodified interiors, I'm not interested in woodworking projects), any engine shots, inside or out, pics of things disassembled that you may have shot over the years, emblems, door handles, original stickers, Spider 2000 circuit boards...whole car shots too.

I'd love to but the resolution is too low on these pics.

Dude!
What are you all uptight about? The next best solution is to get our cars out to Brad Artigue's place. Like this he can snap away 1000 or so images of what he needs with all the resolution he wants. We know that our awesome cars will make the cross-country journey and it gives us a perfect opportunity for a roadtrip. I'm already in need of another fix! I'm sure Brad will give our Spiders (and us) a night out on the town in beautiful Atlanta and he gets to make some super-cool Canadian friends!

Bring it on.

I really can't use low resolution pictures, at all. That's what the problem is with web photos, your screen resolution isn't anywhere near what you need for print...then again I may just put out an ebook, but coffee table books are more fun (and there are too many Porsche books).

I have about 90% of what I need already, but I honestly lack some diversity. I have nice pictures of BS, BS1, CS0, and CS2 cars...in various stages of whatever. Some addition pics would be nice to have.

What pics do you need?
I am not too far from Sandy Springs or I can pull out the trusty Nikon and get what you need.
I have a 1972 Spider that is in fairly good order and mostly original.
I am glad to do what I can.
Working feverishly to get ready for Italian Car Days here.
Does anyone know when that is this year in Atlanta?
My goal is to have my car there this year.

I can take the pictures. I don't know really what I want, I tend to shoot everything and sort it out later. Shoot me a PM or email I'd love to see the car regardless.

I don't know when ICD is, haven't been in a decade.
