We have had inquiries as to when a particular make or model is going to
be online at Automotive Mileposts. To keep you informed of our plans for
constructing the site, we thought we would publish the various phases of
our current construction schedule. This is subject to change, and we will
continue to update pages that are already published with new information
and photos. That way, Automotive Mileposts will always have something new
to offer.

We recognize that in some instances, cars from the 1940's as well as some
1980's and 1990's models have been included on this list. In those instances,
we feel their inclusion is necessary to tell the story of the American
luxury car from the 1950s-1970s.
Please note: It is possible that certain years or models may be moved from
one phase to another, due to design, time, and space considerations.
As new models are suggested, they will be added to this page if they meet
the criteria for inclusion on Automotive Mileposts.
If you feel we have omitted a particular make, model, or year that should
be included, please suggest its addition to the site by E-mailing us: suggestions@automotivemileposts.com
