always cool to see a boardmember's truck in a mag,congrats!
I know my wife got a kick out of how excited I was to see Frizzle Fry's Tahoe in an article recently.

**special-K** · 10-02-2008, 05:20 AM

Need pics for those w/o the magazine.....PLEASE?!!!

sierragrande71 · 10-02-2008, 08:55 AM

Sorry guys

I knew you guys would ask. I'm having a terrible time uploading any of my photos and I can't figure it out. I also went to the Classic Trucks website and I couldn't find any pics of the recent issue. Again SORRY everyone

No Bradley,he has a flat black`69 and a blue & white`72.I figure someone can get pics from the mag on here.

powell72 · 10-02-2008, 09:32 PM

First off I want to say thanks to everyone and to sierragrande71 for noticing.
I have this pic of the mag I took, it isn't the best but the most recent Colorado Nat's show coverage is not up on their site yet.

This is the Dec. '08 issue.

Grant Peterson is a great guy and is very knowledgeable, we talked for probably 45 minutes on the Friday of the show. He came up to us on Saturday and asked if we would meet him at 5:00 down the road, he wanted to do features on my wife and I's trucks. I said, "Are you sure you want to photogragh our junk?"

Anyways, we had a great time doing the shoot, he said it takes between six months to a year and a half for the features to show up. I asked him if we had a good chance of the features getting ran and he said he doesn't waste his time if it won't make print, so I feel good about it. Just in case I took a pic of him shooting our trucks as proof it happened.

We'll definitely have to meet up next year, everytime I was around your truck there was no one there last year. Bad timing I guess.
And congrats on your feature, the truck looks great.
