For the last 4 years I have been restoring a 1960 Autobianchi Bianchina Trasformable. It is just about ready to show at the Lakewood "Wooden Keels and Classic Wheels" show in May.
Here are the photos I took today for the show Program book.

What an awesome job you did. I saw some of these in Italy in the early 70s. Love the paint scheme you chose.

Not in Dallas. It is Lakewood Yatch Club in Seabrook, Texas, just a mile down the road from where I live. I have been a classic car judge there for the last 5 years....but they won't let me judge the cars that I enter!

If anyone wishes to see what I had to do to restore the Bianchina, just go to YouTube and look for my video titled "Autobianchi Restoration" This will chronicle the first 2 years of my work.

Peter, great video. Unbelievable amount of work. Great music, too. What album was that? I really like jazz trios, and jazz piano.

Great restoration, nice pics, but may I suggest getting down low for a few shots and putting it in front of a simpler background.

Congratulations on a very nice restoration. It always great relief when finished.
I might suggest like the other comments , some lower shots shooting upward and yes a better background , after all your hard work , it deserves it.

He's not in Dallas....but if he was, I'd suggest Dakotas and then a drive by at the Meyerson before attending the Symphony. Bow tie if not black tie!!
