    I'd like to thank Luke Karosi for including my car in Kustoms Illustrated #32, and for giving me the cover!! I was very excited and honored when Luke contacted me about shooting my car for the mag, but I never expected to be on the cover, I was speechless..The feature is great, the story surrounding my car still brings a tear to my eye, and its great to see that immortilized in what is the best mag available today..

    Thank you Luke, I am forever greatful...

    To be in Kustom's Illustrated is something I'm shooting for with my Caddy. Just told the wife that the other day in fact. It's a motivator. I better get back out into the garage...

    as someone who lived in your area and was able to see that car transform thru the years, i can say you did an amazing job and the coverage is well deserved! not alot of people are willing to take the risks you did in building a radical full custom. most opt for the "safe" mild custom route. the design and vision used to build are one of a kind. congrats!

  20. I saw your car two years ago at Lead East and really liked it. It turned out great! It has some nice details on it; my favorites are the old ISCA decal in the window, the chrome tape on the roof, and the plastic on the taillights. That last one is a really cool trick that you don't see anywhere these days, except in the old magazines. Nice job!

  24. Thank you man, I sure appreciate it! I'm friends with Ray, he sent me a photo of both of your cars together, it really looked like something from an old magazine. Congratulations!
     
  25. Awesome issue. Man I wish Luke would go Bi-monthly soon. I hate only seing it 4 times a year. I have a goal to one day have a car in that magazine.
