if you havnt picked up the lastest issue of CHP magazine, you should

inside you will find an article written about a car, and a guy that has worked his *** off to build his car to what it is now.



this car impresses me everytime i see it


great job Jeff



pat

 

you all don't have to thank me all at once for my great efforts and all the enduring hours of work I put into my car.


Woops you mean kandied's car....
congrats man

 

double post

 

damn it pat.....you've seen it before me!!



just playing however i really would like to see it myself, is it a decent write up?? someone told me it was out and i can't find it anywhere.....any ideas?

thanks for the heads up!

 

i thought you would already have a copy sent to you early?

but yeah its a nice write up, i thought so anyways!!


we just got the magazine in at work and i started to quickly look through it, and just found your car. i dont know if the magazine is even supposed to be put on newstands yet or not, but i took one anyways

 

yeah i can't find it anywhere and unfortunately they really don't care about sending magazines too us. i have to pay regular price for every issue i want.

as you can see i didn't even know it was printed, off to the store i go....

:lala:

 

Swweet car man it is always a good thing to see a thirdgen.org car in a magazine! Just one question how come you never mention thirdgen.org in the article? J/K good job man!

 

i didn't have a choice of went into the article..........i had zero input. i filled out a 20 page sheet and sent them a copy of an old article that was printed on the car in 2001 for world wide camaro association and that was it.

i had no input, i didn't recieve a heads up, i never got a magazine and when i called to get one they wanted to charge me $8 a magazine for copies.....

so instead i went to every local corner store and bought them all up!

 

93 huh....

thanks!

 

Congrats on your feature it looks really good!!! I was kinda bumd that they didn't show more angles of the car or the interior. Maybe it's me but I thought you put in corbeau seats in you car and the magazine said Sparco? I guess thats to be expected, when my car was featured in Super Chevy they completly butchered my story, ohh well what do you do. The bottom line is you made it!! Congrats!!

 

yup...they write what sells.

 

Well better late than never..lol..I was on my way home from work lastnight and stopped to pick up a new car rag to read and imagine my surprise when I opened CHP and saw your car....so Congrats man...great job. Ya dont see many third gens featured but they picked a sweet one when they decided to do it. Too bad ya couldnt of had more input and mentioned TGO.

 

TGO is mentioned in almost every issue somewhere wether it's a feature or a reply in one of the q & a columns. missing one heads up from my article won't make a difference.

 

Nice write up on your car, especially considering you sent them everything to put the article together. I seen it in person at the Autorama earlier in the year, but didn't get a chance to meet you. FWIW, Gary Cook also made the headers for my car, back when he did the work out of his house garage.

 

that's quite some time.....he's been through 4 shops now.

thanks for the kind words.

 

Two shops on Gratiot and where he currently is now (didn't know of a fourth?). I haven't dealt with him in quite some time, since I do most of my own fab work now. Great guy who does decent work for a fair price, but he can be a little hard to get a hold of at times. Yes, it has been quite a while since he did my headers (around '97) - my car has been a long time coming. I vividly remember when he completed the headers and I picked my car up, he had his wife and daughter help him push my car up on my trailer (it had a mock-up engine in it), while I sat in it and steered!

 

lol...yeah he actually has had more shops but those are the most recent. his last one was near selfridge off of rosso hwy and the latest is over off of joy in mt.clemens again...
