I don't know if there's a science to it, but sometimes it just boils down to being in the right place at the right time or simply making your car stand out from all the others. I've already had a few mag opportunities and I'm convinced the paint/flames and wheels do it for me.

Not a big fan of flame paint jobs, but that's a sharp car you have there! Congratulations!

It's done well, even if you don't like flames you can appreciate how well it ties in to the theme of the car by going in the engine bay and having the right stuff powder coated to match.

Formula cars have never made me look twice, especially LT1 models. You sir, however have made me look ten times. That car is something special to look at.

Yeah it is just a good combo of looks. I knew when I saw it that it was one of the best LT1 T/A's I had seen.

there is no formula into getting into a magazine cause i have seen some shitty *** cars in all magazines..... but if someone wanted to get into a magazine you want to first have a clean car, make it fast and look good, and have a good paint job and wheels on.... i have been talking to chevy high performance about all 3 of my camaros doing a photo shoot when the LT1 gets the new motor back in it..... it just takes sending them messages and not stopping until you get in touch with them!!!!! jake

Congratulations, nice article and nice pictures. The picture in the article that caught my attention was the one taken from the driver's side rear quarter panel (looking down). While I understand the front of the car demands the most attention, that silver looks absolutely stunning.
