    I got the latest issue of Hot Rod out of my mailbox yesterday, and there was Jim's cool Chevy II on the cover, with a great write-up inside. I had the pleasure of getting to know Mr. Thorpe at the Meltdown last year. His altered wheelbase Chevy II is a class study on how to build a period correct A/FX.

    please take a pic of cover & post here - maybe squirrel will not peek until he gets his personal copy - once on the local news stand all copies will be in someone's garage
