fan of exacting cutaway art - though it's Bob Freeman's drawings that are my favourites. I bought a print from him a few years back of a beautiful Jaguar V12 engine. We exchanged a few emails and I suggested that a book of his work would be fantastic. I have a nice leaflet that came with Supercar Classics that has lots of images and talks about his early life. It's a pity he's gone.

Bob Freeman was a genius! I had a part time lecturer called Jack Crawley who had a similar skill and style.

I found this very cool and informative thread looking for info on the art of Tony Matthews. Does anyone know if there is a way to contact him about his archive of cutaway art? Whilelike to add another British name to the list, Terry Collins. He started as an army cartographer, later worked for Hayward & Martin and then found himself at the famous Temple Press Ltd where he did drawings for Motor Cycling and The Motor. Since 1965 Collins acted as a freelancer, although his name is often linked with Ford Europe because it was he who drew most of the ghosted pics for them. I think he produced cutaways of all the Benetton-Fords from 1987-1994 period. Maybe Stewart-Fords too? I don't know.In 1996 I (a schoolboy then) saw colour drawings of Michael Schumacher's Benetton-Ford B193B and Miki Biasion's Ford Escort Cosworth XR3i, both made by Collins. This was apparently not the first time that I saw a cutaway drawing, but
