This thread is meant to be the antithesis to what happens to many projects. We all know the odds of getting them done in the face or life's realities. So if you finished one and have a before and after pic, post it up. NOT limited to cars; if you built it and it is done, post it up. Link to the build thread if there is one.
Rule: Three pic max; before, during and done.
My first car project was the Bugeye Sprite

What is this "Done" you speak of?

If you don't like pics of 'done', sure as hell don't get on Instagram. Instagram would have you think that things just finish themselves and noone has a life or any time/money constraints.

Before
After 302, T5z and 8.8 IRS.
A little over 10 years (and over 30k miles) ago..... this began (Ahhh. now I got it)
I'm confused by the thread title. It says, "Can we stop posting pics of finished projects?" Did you mean unfinished?

I lost track of this build after following for a loooooooooooooong time. Thanks for the update.

How about we post project cars that we bought finished instead? No before, just the after. That would narrow it down from almost zero to zero.
Even when it's done it ain't done.

Obtuse Audience today.
If it ended up drivable, it got done. I am hoping to drag out the many sucess stories that I have followed on this forum over the years and have them in one thread. Like I said, add a link to the build thread.
For the easily confused.....Here is an example. Awesome car by the way!
Before project:
After project
It aint that complicated ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What is that?
One of my all time favorite threads;
https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/midlana-a-mid-engine-answer-to-a-seven-for-today/66904/page1/
I did this one a few years ago for a customer. From a marginal 750 Motor Club race car to a street toy in Pennsylvania.

Vaugley familiar this one! I think any car that made it to the challenge should be in this thread. Refresh our memories of where such things start from.

New around here?

I was on the edge of that, but I hardly go to the other section so it didn't really click.
Well, mine doesn't look that different. It was mostly mechanical but there's also some new wheels, so here goes:
Before:
After:
And in use:
