Holy, another month has ripped by and what a busy one too! The car show season was about to kick off with a huge rush but that has suddenly come to a grinding halt. Admittedly I had to do a quick re-write of this, just now actually! So with everyone back into their sheds for the past couple of weeks and some for a bit longer, I’m looking forward to seeing some new projects hitting the road when we are all set free again. Well, that’s the wish anyway. It’s always hit and miss getting projects completed on time even in normal times, but you have to find the silver lining in it all somewhere I reckon. So last month was all around the North Island again for me.
Grabbing feature car photos to bring to you and catching up with the Kruzin Kustoms team with their Open Day after the Palmy Swap Meet. That was a huge day with a massive turn out at both events. I managed to drag a few cool cars out of their sheds for a photoshoot as well, so watch this space to check those out. As for this magazine here, thanks soooo much to the people who have subscribed to this and who have subscribed on our Youtube channel as well. The more subscribers we get the more we can grow it for you, so please keep sharing it around and getting it in front of your mates. In this month’s issue, we have a massive coverage of the Palmy Swap Meet just gone and also the BIG ONE! Muscle Car Madness – the weekend!. OMG it’s huge! There is around 4 hours of video coverage just for this event!
The weekend is when it really goes off here with a shows n’ shine, retro pageant and burnouts. So make sure you check this article out and definitely check out the video. Just click on the video icons throughout the article, sit back and enjoy. There is also a couple of very cool feature cars in here too. A very BAD EH and a DODGEE Charger. Both awesome builds in their own right! So check those out along with the video’s as well. So cheers all, kick back, check out the photos, watch the videos and definitely spread the word that this is what we are! We LOVE cool cars!
