Restoration Awards

Vote for your favourite restoration story featured in Classics Monthly during 2010.

If you’ve restored your classic and want to show it off to the world, get in touch – maybe you can get it featured in Classics Monthly. Perhaps a relative or friend has just completed a project, and you feel their efforts should be rewarded.

Either way, let us know and they could be entered into our Restoration Awards. Voted for by you, they’ll celebrate the best restoration projects of 2010.

Winners will be announced in December, both here and in the magazine.
