Magazine Cover!
I was very surprised when I logged on my Facebook last week and a friend of mine had sent me a message asking if I had seen the picture of my truck?
I sent back, no I was at the beach and had no internet service except my phone. While I was waiting for him to post the picture I was like what truck magazine had taken pictures of my truck and I didn't know about them! Then I saw it. It was for Classic Air AC catalog, they used my picture I sent them about a year ago for their new cover! I used their 134-A retro kit in my truck and had sent them pictures after the install. It's not a full page cover story but I'll go with it. It's been in Hot Rod magazine and now a cover shoot!

Re: Magazine Cover!
Thanks guy's!
I got home a little while ago and didn't have a copy of it waiting on me so I have sent them a request for a couple of them. Will see what they send me.

Re: Magazine Cover!
Cool man, I always liked how unique your truck is. There's no question when you see it that it's your truck.
