I am looking for copies (photocopies, actual articles cut from mags, or pics of the articles) of HBB drawings, with the descriptive captions, from the 80's-90's mags. I have included pics of a couple of the articles for reference.

Willing to pay shipping on what you want to send.

Later-

Unlike some of the other artists doing car restyling sketchpads back then, he actually measured the cars and parts being used.  The pieces would work together as illustrated.  Some other guys would have the components sized or proportioned incorrectly relative to one another.

Harry Bentley Bradley's linework and core shadows filled me with both inspiration and curdling envy when I was learning to draw cars. Never got there myself, but still love his art!

I kept several mags that have scans of his work...the feature that comes to mind immediately is his series of slick Modifieds in Street Rodder magazine.
But those images are featured here: https://www.deansgarage.com/harry-bentley-bradley-part-2/
