The rules are a little vague as you can see by other contestants entries ...

This Challenge involves the restoration of any land motor vehicle (Car, Truck, Van, SUV, Motorcycle, Bus). The restoration must be a do-it-yourself project of at least the exterior of the vehicle involving body work. Use of Dupli-Color Products is not required. The restoration project shall be substantially completed without the help or assistance of any body shop or professional restorer or mechanic in their professional capacity. If such professional services are utilized, it must be on a very limited basis and thoroughly explained in the written description portion of the entry. The restoration must not have been completed prior to January 1, 2000. To enter, you must submit the following: (a) a picture of the vehicle before the restoration; (b) a picture of the vehicle after the restoration; and (c) a written description of your restoration project including the types of products used and any outside or professional assistance (limited to 150 words) to support your entry . The before and after pictures should show the vehicle from a similar angle and light and may not be edited, altered, or touched up in any way. The Challenge can only be entered electronically at www.restorationchallenge.com and will also require you to provide your name, street address, e-mail address, and daytime phone number. By entering, you warrant that you substantially restored the vehicle yourself and that you own and possess the restored vehicle at the time of entry. Limit one (1) entry per person, household or street address. Any additional entries will be void. Entries that are incomplete or that contain errors, trademarks/logos, copyrighted images or inappropriate/derogatory/defamatory images, language, nudity or profanity will be automatically disqualified. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, misdirected, altered, or destroyed entries. All entries become the property of Sponsor and will not be acknowledged or returned. Proof of sending will not be deemed proof of receipt by Sponsor.

At least I posted similar pics of my car

I appreciate any input.

This from an e-mail ...

The point of this challenge is to describe what has been done and to showcase a completed car when finished. If the vehicle is in the restoration process then it must be complete by the entry deadline mid June.

Did you guys get that ..?
