Thanks guys! Yeah, I got a call today from a company that takes the article and makes a laminated plaque with it. That's when I found out that it was shipping. Now all I have to do is find a few copies myself....

From Classic Trucks website-

On The Cover
Finishing up its media gamut run, Don Hachenberger's No Limit-built '56 F-100 graces this month's cover thanks to Jeremy Cook and his trusty Canon 10D. For the full scoop on the 2004 Truck of the Year, flip to page 50. Jeremy also fulfilled his "snapping" duties by clicking off the images of Ken McAvoy's sleek '77 Chevy Cheyenne, which you can find starting on page 46.

Ken, it's a good spread. Congratulations. I noticed something funny about the valve covers description though . . .... .

This months issue is good advertising for the shop. I'll be sure to show Roger/Keith on Monday night.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

That was a good article and gave some great exposure to this board. I wonder how many new users we'll see just because of that...

Ken congrats on making a magazine. I thought it was great they even mentioned the 'great airline incident'.

Classic Trucks seems to be embracing the coming of the 73-87 trucks. I think I'll subscribe.

I had planned to come for the show, but I wouldn't be showing the truck. It's resting for the winter getting a few details done for the Spring show season. I found out my daughter has a volleyball tournament that weekend, so I won't be coming up till later. If everything goes right, it will be at the Dust Off show in the Spring....
