Hey guys. I'm seeing more and more Pro touring cars around Dallas/Ft. Worth. Didnt realize it was so many of them around. How about posting pics of your cars??

Remember guys, the end goal of a magazine is to sell advertising space. Sometimes it is necessary to draw attention to yourself to get the job done...and they are willing to draw attention to themselves in the most hideous of ways.

Magazines show no alliances. Remember how they threw Dobbertin under the bus when they claimed Pro Street was dead. They used him (and the others of his ilk) and spit on him when it came time to move on to something new...so they could drum up interest...and sell more advertising space.

You can be their darling one year and their target the next. Don't take it to seriously and enjoy your own car.

With that said, no one can deny that magazines do have pull & can influence trends. What gets covered, gets built by the next generation. You WILL see a lot of cragars/slots, panel paint jobs, & 6-71s next year.

I am not seeing a whole lot of cars built in a PT style around here. I don't really consider mine PT. I think of its more restomod with PT type suspension.
