Default Work-in-progress pictures

I will undoubtedly regret this, but I have started a work-in-progress section. I have limited time (read seriously behind) so don't expect daily updates.

427SCs 604 and 606 are currently posted. If you want yours posted, send me an e-m at eracars@aol.com.

To look at your pics, go to erareplicas.com/wip/your_car_number/

Back to work...

Turk,

Yes, it's too late. Besides - last week we took your file out and burned it in a symbolic funeral pyre/waste basket. You simply don't exist anymore.

Now, who are you????

I still think that a Web-Cam is a better idea!

ROFL!

You've done it now, Bob! It's always harder to get the hornets to go back into the nest!

How about a web cam situated in back of Peter, closely monitoring him while his bald spot slowly spreads?

Bob, Great idea. My son has a collision shop and he has the progress of the customers repairs available online. He updates with pics daily, and it seems to really work well. The customers can check anytime to see their car and also e-mail any question to any of the managment personnel.

Bob, You have opened a can of worms.

Can you expand this for WIP at Tonys?

ERA # 607

Thanks in advance

Tim

I think I'm going to shoot myself...

Tony's is out of the question. I'm supposed to go to the R&D shop (1 mile away) and haven't had the time for weeks. The only thing you guys are going to get results from my travels when I open up the buildings in the morning. If I see something significant, I'll take a pic.

Turk - quit instigating things! I'm making enough mistakes myself.

Todd,

Maybe #592 will tell you the color. Tony is so stressed out nowadays that I don't ask him anything without ducking...

Bob,

Are your updates located on your website and if so where?

Another thing --- I like the pictures of the sky. Though, I would rather go to an Ansel Adams website to see something like that. I am obviously going to have to come up to New Britain and make sure that everyone is working towards getting to my car.

Can you take a picture of all the metal in your shop. I will then be able to imagine that maybe a piece of it will go into my car.

You can get a listing (by chassis number) of the cars at http://www.erareplicas.com/wip/

It's pretty limited now, as is my time. But I'll do what I can.
