Default Has anyone had their car in PFM??

Gday folks,

well seeing as our newest sponsor on the forums is Performance Ford Magazine, I just thought id stick up a thread to see if anyone from these forums has had their car in the magazine

whether it be a feature car, or in the drag section...or even in the readers cars section let us know if its been in there somewhere!

cheers
dave

My brother's XBGT will be in one of the upcoming editions.

We had a good photo shoot and we now look forward to seeing the final result in the glossy.

Yep,

It'd easily do high 11's if he ever gets those slicks under it...............probably low 11's with a little more sorting............there's just no stopping a good CLEVO.

3rd PLACE = in the back section with the small pic and small write up.
2nd place = Feature story in the magazine (ie, 2 page spread)
And the winner is - Making the front cover.
How many have made the front cover? (1 that i know of)

My car has been in the top 5 Vic streeters a few times and hopefully will be back next issue. I also had a little pic from the drags last issue. I have been asked to have the car in a feature which i'm looking forward to.

You can see my bonnet in the wide shot of the 2004 Geelong AFD.

Only if you know where to look though.
