Yes to both. I had sent pics to some mags for readers rides and if your at a show and they see and like your car and take pics its most likely going in a mag in a story about the show.


But in my case my sis works at primedia for vette and mopar muscle mags and the guy next to her works on HPP and i have been buggin her for over 3 years and finally they picked my car.
