    I swung into a store last night, thumbed through some mags to see whats going on out there, never in my life have I ever had a subscription to any mag. Grabbed the new Street Rodder Sept, thumbing through,, came across the Brookville add, I ****! , they never really use a car for advertising, the ***le! they couldn't have said it any better, One of my most stressful builds in life, I slapped this F!@@ER together in 3 weeks and 3 days for the shoot, I couldn't ask for more from them. Here it is , Just wanted to say thanks to Brookville, and The Rodders Journal, Jeff you know I love you ;)

    Tooting your own horn is perfectly fine- as long as it's the horn in that killer A roadster...I can't tell you how many times I've drooled over that thing- If I ever build one it'll be a cross between yours and Keith Weesners. Congrats!

    You have to believe people are really starting to take notice of your work. When I got the mag I knew right away where I'd seen the car before. It helps that it's so memorable.

    I think it was Mohammad Ali who said, 'It ain't bragging if you can do it.' And Steve, you can do it! Time and time again. Congrats.

    Good, hard work does occasionally lead to good things! Seems well deserved to me. Would have been nice to give you some credit though. I am in the architecture biz. and no credit for work is very common. So, I know how you feel and are glad for just getting the photo even without the credit. Very nice work regardless.

    By the way, I did check my blower intake clearance and I think I would like to get one of your 392 valley pan covers from you. I have probably about an 1" clear even with the lower Weiand intake. I'll give you a call or PM soon about that.

    That's pretty sweet...I was flipping through an old tractor book the other night and I've read this book from front to back about 130 times and never ever saw it before...Flipped the page...WHAM!! Hey that's my tractor!! My '38 J.D. Unstyled 'L'...I showed my dad and all he said is "good lookin' dumb*** it's in about 30 others books too...." ******* killed my moment.

    Bad *** car!

    hey sellers,
    congrats on the exposure, shame they couldnt run a little plug for you in the ad!

    was wondering what that roadster looks like now? is it painted/on the road?

    I've been lusting after those headers since the first time I saw them on your MySpace page. The guys at Sanderson wake up having nightmares about those things!
