Last week was a pretty good week. The issue came out with the Chevelle on the cover of Hot Rod Magazine. I wish I knew where my high school math teacher was that said I would never get any where if I was going to read Hot Rod Magazine in her class all while I had a 3.8 GPA and was just really good in math.

We also were asked to bring the Chevelle down to The Adam Corolla Studio last Monday for the Podcast and walk around outside the studio with the car. I drove the car down there and back. It's always fun to go through LA on the freeway in that car as it gets quite the looks on the freeway. Matt and Adam are funny guys and I was honored to be asked to do something some really famous people in our industry have done before. Maybe it will bring us some new activity, maybe not. If it does not it was fun and my customer on this car thought it was cool. So I guess that is all that really matters.

The link is right here for the video and the podcast.

The guest in the video spot might have a face for radio, but I thought I did pretty well for my first time trying to act like I know what I'm talking about. Not quite sure if I was successful on that yet. I'm sure Greg will give me his take.

I'm not so sure I'm a natural. I just know how to run my mouth pretty well. Thanks guys for the compliments our work. This is not the nicest car we have ever built due to the 16 year old paint job, but I'm starting to think that is what makes it cool. It's like shiney patina I suppose. I'm still blown away to have a car we built on the cover of Hot Rod. I have read that magazine for probably 30 years. I got in so much trouble in High School reading that magazine in class. Let alone that cover picture is pretty stinkin cool. It was an actual picture not a photoshop.

Thanks again guys, My crew is getting better and better everyday and we are in a place where the work really hunts us out and we have a half dozen guys that are super cool car guys and they want to build really nice, bad ass cars.
