Yes I did. I got the original version then painted the center black so that it would better match my pedals. It is a very nice piece of work.

Thanks you guys. I never visioned I could make a magazine.

68EFIvert if you never pictured your car in a magazine you must have been blindfolded. I have always thought your car was beautiful. Then you'd go and change something and make it even better.

I love the color and the subtle things you did to make it modern. It is a beautiful restomod and I'm sure everyone here would agree. It is one of the most unique and beautiful mustangs they've seen.

I have a subscription but I'm going to have to buy a few more copies when I see the article.

You made the car look good, he simply took some pictures. I've said it before, but it is worth saying again, Darreld, your car is beautiful! You did a great job!

Sweet. I told you several months ago you'd make one of the magazines. With these pics, I can see why. It's amazing what good quality pics can bring out. It looked great before but these pics make it look even better. Congratulations.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I think my car is pretty nice but there are a lot of cars that are nicer than mine. I just got lucky getting in the magazine. The first time I took the car out with the family we went down to Dairy Queen for some ice cream. It was late August and the weather was perfect. While we were eating I noticed some people looking at it in the lot. I kept a passive eye on them and then when we went outside the guy asked if he could take some pictures of the car. He admired it (not bad for a Mopar guy to drool over a Ford) and then told me he had his car in a Mopar Magazine. He then showed me a picture he had on his cell phone. It was a nice old Charger IIRC. He then said he wanted to forward my picture to the guy who did the shoot on his car. I said that would be awesome and it took off from there. SO me being in a magazine was really pure luck and a matter of being at the right place at the right time.

4reboy you have good taste! LOL

Valley I haven't seen you around much lately. Been hunting or something?
