My model was seen in March 1962 Car Craft Magazine. I was actually hired to build this model. I was offered $10 and the '59 Chevy annual would be supplied and I donated the '25 'T" bucket. But after getting into it I decided to buy out the project. I sent a photo to Car Craft because I thought they would like to see it. Car Craft published the photo to my surprise. |

My first published photo. I made the readers section in the March 1962 Car Craft magazine. Car Craft sent me a copy before it was on the news stands. I was thrilled. This, by the way, predates the July '62 premier issue of Car Model Magazine. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
