It’s that time of year again. With the 2009 SEMA Show little more than 100 days away, designers, tuners and builders are working the wrenches, body shops, and paint booths—not to mention the phones—to get their projects ready for the Show.
Building a project for the Show? E-mail us a few photos (600x400 max) and a brief description of your plans, and we’ll try to get your creation in a future issue of eNews.
Watch the newsletter for project updates, and make a note to catch these cars on the Show floor in Vegas.
