Default EuroFordClub in Street Fords Issue 26!

Well, we all knew it was coming! As soon as I saw the Express Publications envelope on our dinner table I had to open it up and see!

Our photoshoot from last December has finally graced the pages of Street Fords magazine, and I don't think you'll be too disappointed. I won't spoil it for anyone, but we get a decent sized review, some great photos (except the one with me in it) and good coverage.

I'll leave it there, subscribers should have their's now or soon, the newsagents should get their's in the coming week or so.

I'll be signing copies of SF mag for those interested at Richmond KFC tomorrow at lunchtime! :

Dan

Yeah, I enquired with my Agent (not my PR Agent!) and they said it should be in the shops around 25th of May and I secured my allocation on the spot.

I was wondering WHO would be the first to let the cat out of the bag.
CONGRATULATIONS guys!!!! (AND GALS)
Will have to keep an eye out at the newsagents & grab meself a copy - sounds like there's some good content in there.
Might I also extend a special mention to Tim without whose tireless efforts this would not have eventuated.

photn - I picked the right time to be an SF subscriber

wulos - Excellent work with the photography. There are some awesome shots in the mag. Would love to see some of the originals - some time

and yes,

Thanks to Tim, Street Fords and everyone who came along to the event - it was a fun experience, and a bit surreal seeing the end result!

Dan

I'm still waiting to see what they've done with the shots meself - though I DO have a fairly good idea as to what shots they ended up using. Will have to wait til I see the article to be sure though....
In regards to seeing additional images - we'll cross that bridge when we come to it - technically it still isn't out in print as yet!!!
Abraxas may I ask what carshows / cruise events are in the mag as well???

Mark, Other Carshows and Cruise Events for the issue include:

Powercruise at Eastern Creek.
FPV 10th Anniversary Open Day. (Noticed your name in the Pics credits )

Aside from the car reviews and the EFC, that's it.

Heya Todd,

I guess I could do that, but I don't want to rain on anyone's party, particularly if there's any issues showing such stuff before the issue hits the newstands?

Got my issue 26! It's good to see the eurofordclub graces the "club showcase" section. Once again, thanks to Tim & the people who came to the photoshoot. Last but not least, thanks to JR, Mark and everyone at Street Fords Magazine for featuring the Eurofordclub.

Remind me to comb my hair next time. I look like I just got out of bed! Great photos of my Focus though, I'm really pleased how they turned out. I can't seem to download onto my Hard Drive though?

That explains my other Nickname: "Shagger". BTW I've now downloaded my photos so thanks again Wulos. The photos look fantastic!
