| For
our next feature this month
we hook up with Staff photographer,
Toby Mosholder for a way above
the concrete feature of Allen
Fall’s 1978 K5 Chevy Blazer.
Not very often do you see someone
that has taken all the extra
steps to build their vehicle
with the detail that Allen’s
truck has. Vertical doors a
very modern flame paint job
and a fully painted and detailed
frame keeps this awesome 4x4
above everyone on trophy day.
When
staff photographer Smalls says
he is getting ready to shoot
a truly unique truck, don’t
take it with a grain of salt.
This month Smalls had the pleasure
of hooking up with Jason
Samples and his exceptional
1996 Toyota Tacoma. The
one feature that accurately
makes Jason’s truck stand out
from the crowd is the graphics
that roll off the hood, down
the driver side. From one side
of the truck it looks like a
really clean solid color mini.;
then from the other side of
the truck it has a true Cali
style graphic scheme. Nice job
on the Toyota Jason. I can’t
wait to see it in person this
summer.
To
finish up features this month,
staff photographer Jason Peckovitch
took full advantage of living
in Colorado. Jason grabbed Heinrich
Dinsmore, his awesome 3000GT,
and super sexy Jenn Caplan;
they headed for the mountains.
Just one look at this photography
and you know that you are in
one of the natures most beautiful
spots. What a wonderful background
for such a highly modified vehicle.
For
shows this month, we start off
in Indianapolis Indiana on the
weekend of Feb 9-11, 2007 at
the
48th Annual Car Quest

the past 4 years we have had
the pleasure of producing the
Gauge Magazine.com lifestyle
hall. In this hall,
we bring in the coolest modern
vehicles around, throw in a
DJ, hydro show and let the party
begin. It is truly a unique
twist to the traditional world
of wheels shows. For all the

third stop on show features
this month is with photographer,
David Bramhall at the Shreveport,

Can
you believe it? March is
already here. It won’t be
long before all of us in
the Midwest will be shedding
our winter fur and getting
our customized vehicles
on the road once again.
