Greg -- these are collector items of sorts for many of us. I'd snatch them all up unless its like dozens or something.

I found a July issue at the local Borders store and I think I will find more there in the coming days, and I bet next Summer at SSIV you can unload those for what you have in them and get lots of good will in the process.....

If I honestly am in there, I think that's worth snagging 2 or 3. I don't make pages of glossy mags too often!!!

Slick 60's won't get this sort of coverage very often -- who knows how long print media will last anyhow these days. We should pretty much buy up this issue for posterity.

There is a very good picture of you with your truck on page 52. I may just go clean out the Baker's here that sells it. I did buy 1 extra issue for myself, lol.

Grr I keep forgetting about it.
got to head down to Chapters and get a Starbucks and pick up the mag. Max's pix were XLNT when I saw them at SS, no doubt they are the same now LOL

One thing I have never seen since is Alans video recording of the crooners in the karaoke... Pat was awesome, and the others very good too.

Hey Chris..You know what we were talking about on the phone ,about how our wives don't get the whole slick60S thing. well when I got this magazine and went a little ape she really didn't get it.Its kind of like seeing your family on tv or something for me. You guys get it right!!!! SHURE YOU DO!!

byron, my wife actually read the article. she still doesn't get it, but she humors me now. and she has agreed to ride in the un-airconditioned rickety old truck up to iowa next year.

Found ONE copy at Barnes and Nobel up here in the Northland in KC today. I think Gerry bought the other copies already....

So there I am -- first and probably last time I'll ever get my mug in a glossy magazine.

Great article -- that should snag us a few members.

I finally got my copy tonight. Thanks again to Ken for sending me one. It's hard to come by in the sticks up here.

All I can say is a huge thank you to Mr. Gilbert. I am honored to have helped and to be part of such a great group. It was very well put together and brought back some great memories.

My kids asked me how come I was drinking beer with Santa Claus????? How do you answer that one???

I was really shocked to see a feature article on slicks in the mag. It made me happy. I might have to save up my bones to put a new tranny in my truck and make the journey next year.

All of the trucks in the article look great. It was nice to see some familiar names in the mag.

Found one copy today at Wal-Mart and grabbed it. Maybe my ride will be in the next picture made when all of these cool trucks meet again.
