Here you go, for those that never saw AutoBuff magazine. From my archives. Forgive the Scrub on the cover - I bought this for the article on the 428 powered Torino, really I did. AutoBuff had a local Minnesota tie-in, per the masthead the corporate office was at MAS, a well known Minneapolis speed shop, although the editorial office was in Georgia.

Kevin is referring to the Chevrolet vehicle, aka "scrub"...

Edit:  Oh, now I get it  ::)

Hmmm, I still don't see no Chiverlay. Been looking at it for 10 minutes now ;D 
(I think Marc was saying that tongue-in-cheek)

I always wanted a picture like that of my car...and I'm not talking about on a cover.

PM me those pictures, Heo!  ;D ;D ;D  If I live longer than my wife (which is doubtful), I'm going to hire some "models" for an Auto Buff redux with my cars...

Heo, if you come back to the U.S. and visit my area again, bring them with you!
And I've often found that just taking a good cell phone picture of an old picture can turn out pretty decent. Decent enough to send them to me before Jay...since it was my idea ;D ;D
