Not that big of a deal, but my '68 is on the lower right hand corner of the cover of Restomod magazine and is the 2nd Mustang on the Reader's Rides section.

My wife sent that in a long time ago and I didn't know about it, so I was extremely surprised to see my car as I was thumbing through it! I completely missed the thumbnail on the cover too until a few days later LOL

I'll have to scan it in, there's no online version unfortunately. I'll see if I can get it posted tonight after work

Yeah, it's not really a big deal but there's something exciting about seeing your car in official print

that happened to my brother about 12 years ago with his VW it was very exciting, electric blue, suicide doors, porsche alloys and a fat turbo sitting on top of a 2110 motor. I kept telling him, Just think what you can do with another 4 cylinders and a boat load more torque... He's looking at a 65 vert now.

Great job and congrats 68Keyblr

Ironically enough, I have a VW bug project going on the side! That sounds like an amazing machine...

it was scary fast. I love mustangs, I bleed blue, but there was a guy who had one hopped up around the corner and he was afraid to race him down at Baylands in Fremont (when it was still open) because he didn't want to get beat by a VW. If I had a scanner I'd scan the article.

It's absolutely a big deal! Many of us are proud when we get a compliment on our Stangs at local shows or cruises, but to have your car on the cover of a mag is awesome. Congrats!!
