About a month before I sold The Bucket I received a request from an editor of a Polish magazine called Auto Tuning Swiat. I really didn't expect much to happen, but I answered all his questions and sent the photos he requestred. Well today I received a copy of the issue containing my (former) car. I was surprised to see how much ink I actually got. No idea what any of it says but I'm sure it's just the info I gave the guy.

I have no idea how to join the pages I scanned so sorry about the odd pictures, but I'm sure you all get the idea.

Kind of fun and I thought I would share.

Awesome Curtis! Well deserved - you did a great job with that car.
Now you just have to find a translator...

Cool! You even got the cover, that's awesome. Yeah Marcin was very easy going and nice to work with. I was really impressed with the final product. I had no idea it would as big as it was. It's always a good thing to get into a magazine, but one as far away as Poland kicks it up a notch. lol

Yes it was a lot of fun and I do miss it a great deal. I have some great ideas for the next one and the Bucket was a huge learning experience. :cheers:

Curtis, that looks like a great article! Maybe he can send you the text of the article and you can throw it into a translator program. That would be kinda cool.

What are you thinking for your next project?

What are you thinking for your next project?that might actually be a bad thing... it probably says something like "stupid americans! didnt anyone tell them 69s are the hot ticket, why bother with a 67. LOLz


that is very cool curtis!

I thought about typing it all into a translator program...not like I don't have the time.

As for the next project....I've got a lot of ideas running through my head. Nothing crazy or over the top. Just a nice clean build with a bit of the race feel. I'll go for the full Pro Touring suspension setup ATS up from and DSE in the rear and an LS to power it all. Other than that nothing is for sure...just ideas that will probably change 20 times before I get to it.

Curtis: Gratulujemy posiadające samochód opisywany w Polsce numer jeden entuzjastów magazynu dla miłośników amerykańskich samochodów!

Which loosely translated, means:

Curtis, Congratulations on having your car featured in Poland's number one enthusiast magazine for lovers of American cars!

Gotta love the Google translator. :D

Curtis, that's pretty cool to have your car (or ex-car) featured in a mag overseas....that's something to be proud of. Congrats!

I look forward to seeing what you do with the next one :thumbsup:
