Hot Rods Twin Chiefs Featured in World Of Rods, March 2010

Hey guys,

just wanted to put the word out so everyone knew ahead of time. My twin brother (fadingfastSD) and I are having our 55 and 56 Pontiac Star Chiefs featured in the March 2010 World of Rods magazine. A good buddy of ours is an editor for their sister publication (Street Trucks), and recommended us for a feature in the garage section of WoR. We've had help from the HAMB while building both of these cars over the past 3 years, and thought some of you guys would want to check out to the issue when it comes out. I'll update when its in stores. Thanks for all the help!
