When dreams come true

[alex g]

so when you build a car you do build it for yourself but it is also for others, i am so happy and proud to have reached one of the major goals in my life.thanks to all the guys who helped me along the way, it makes all that years of work seemingly disapear.

i have been subscribing to this magazine for like 5 years now and you dont know how pleasing it is to get a copy in the mail box with your car on the cover.

Yes, we all do our cars for ourselves but it is nice to receive recognition for an exceptional job. Well done.

No kidding, how can you put a price on something like that?

Is it in the FS thread??

[alex g]

it was 12 grand and its yours

[worm]

Those pics are great... although looks to me as though there has been some serious photochoping.

[alex g]

no real choping at all, these pics where taken by one of australias leading car photographers easton chang and i am sworn to secrecy about the technique he used to get these amazing pics, he shoot s monthly for motor and wheels magazine a true treat to work with him.

the only chopping is minimul color changes, that blue glow is the interior lights :lol:

[Golfwise]

Looks great. Well done star
We should get more Aussie Golfs in the mags,I vote for valvers,
it would make the poms weak at the knees.

[alex g]

i mentioned it to stu and that i would get him in contact with them when he is ready
