Would it be possible for you to send me some information about it, so that I can write a well informed caption for it? (did you build it/ paint it?, what engine/parts are on it, etc.). Also if you have any interesting anecdote to add, please don't hesitate to do so.

    By the way is that an Impala steering wheel in there? what year? and what gauges and shifter have you got?

    Thanks,

    Jerry

    that coupe's the cat's ass!! congrats on the ink.
     
  22. Lol! I hope someday I can have a magazine whore car!:D
     
  23. Well honestly, the coupe was in Street Rodder last month for the same show, it's very much an honor for me and my garage build, very humbling. Never thought that would ever happen.

    Alright, Gary! Your hot rod deserves the attention, no question. The mags like the "photogenic" cars, and your coupe is all of that. Pretty as can be.

    Wasn't long ago, you were in build-process...you did such a kick-ass job on 'er.
     
  25. First of many...

    Your car rocks and should get plenty of attention from the mags.

    I got a similar email from the same mag regarding my old Victoria. I need to follow up with Jerry to get a copy of the magazine.
