Default Who's car has been in Magazines?

I know some of you who have already, but I want to see about getting us some more exposure here on the Left coast by getting some of the magazines to come cover Los Angeles Invasion.

So if you can call or email your contact or put me in touch with them I would greatly appreciate it. This is our opportunity to show the country that Muscle cars are alive and well on the west coast.

The east coast seems to get all the exposure though with the LSX shootout and F-body gathering, Trans Am Nationals and more...

I have touched base with some but it is easier if you already know someone then an inpersonal email.

Thanks,

They were going to but James said he was getting married (crazy fool!) that weekend and would not be able to do it.

MotorGen got some good video and I expect they will be back.

01SOMSS! maintains a fine specimen of a SOM SS and has had a good amount of exposure in more than one media outlet (camaro performers magazine and power tv ??)

InfamousRacingCisko has a C6 vette that is due to be out in carcraft magazine in the next few months

SSMOKIN_Y2KSS has a sweet SS that was in camaro performers sometime last year

there are more, but these are the ones i remembered off the top of my head.

It is a big deal, if ya know the guy give him a ring, send him the website link, ask him to come out. Lets get the West coast back on the Map.

ANything you can do would be appreciated Dave.

That's what I am talking about. Thank You.

My point is. One of the magazines commited to come last year and flaked.

I have emailed the editor of every source interlink magazine that applies to us. But the only way they will get the message is if they get bombarded by you guys and start asking what is this LA Invasion event everyone is talking about??? or you have a rapport with one of them already.

I know Mike Harrington from Super Chevy and John Nelson from Chevy High Performance. I'll try to get ahold of them, but they're Chevy only, no Pontiacs or Buicks.

My father's '90 Trans Am was in Car Craft, I'll ask him if he still has Doug Glad's contact info.

What we really need is someone from GM High Tech Performance, but arent they based back in New Jersey?
