That's right, we wanna see some sick, marlin Crawler'd Toys in the next few issues.

www.crawlmag.com

We're looking for your rigs in our July/August issue... we have a reader's rides type section (Average Joe) that features 4-8 rigs in every issue. We're going to do it a little better than the other mags have done, with color photos and a full spec list, plus sick CRAWL style layouts. If you're rig is worthy, we may even call you for a full feature, so make sure you're contact info is correct. Please don't post photos in this thread, we want it to be a surprise to most of our readers if you're rig gets in there we will send you some swag. We're looking for built rigs, Jeeps, Toyotas, Broncos, buggies, Fords etc. with 35" or larger tires, built axles and something worthy of a magazine. If in doubt, send it anyhow, we don't mind looking thru cool pics.

Here is what we need from you:

3-4 high resolution photos. High res means shot atleast with a 4 megapixel camera, or better. If you do not have these shots already, find a friend with a nice camera, buy him beer and hot dogs and get him to come shoot it. Make sure the background isn't cluttered, shadows are not harsh and if you shoot the photo naked, makes sure we can't see a refelction of your uh... hot dog and beer in the chrome bumper. And make damn sure there are no dogs (hot or otherwise) humping in the background.

We can fix the jeep thing with Toyota parts you know. Concider a hybrid?

Not good enough for a Toy only mag, but should make for some intresting reading.

Thanks for giving us the chance to be in your mag.

38"s 2.5" lift, dual cases, locked f/r, full exo, flatbellied and I'll have some cool wheeling shots soon. finishing up the rear battery/radiator work and 18" dovetailed front details

MR_DIY · « **Reply #15 on:** Apr 04, 2007, 03:47:16 PM »

If you got pics, send um. Alex from Crawl went on a run with a few locals here and was super cool. Have been nothing but impressed since my first issue. I was lucky enough to get in print. An updated pic may be in order. Along with some friends.

UKMyers · « **Reply #23 on:** Apr 30, 2007, 10:06:52 PM »

I just spent 45 minutes typing up all my specs and the email came back saying their mailbox was full...

MiniSimp · « **Reply #24 on:** May 21, 2007, 08:14:57 AM »

Takes them a while to get to their email I guess...

why buy the mag if you can see it on the internet? would be my guess

Yota Up · « **Reply #27 on:** Jun 02, 2007, 02:43:08 PM »

Folks, let's kill this thread of delete it or something.

This was bogus. The guy posted twice and never came back. Emails come back, and he has not posted since.

It's a red herring. I say push the "DELETE" button to save our fellow boys from wasting their time in emailing in a novel for nothing.

Either that, or Mr.CRAWLMAG - post up and show that you are not just a "hit and run" phoney.

psychotoy · « **Reply #28 on:** Jun 07, 2007, 02:58:10 PM »

Seems legit to me, I sent my info to that exact email addy on my ride and was featured in "Average Joe's" for May/June

I'm the red and yellow Zuk buggy....

Wow,way to call him out

.He doesen't hang out on the marlin board

.I've contacted him through MySpace and he's responded right away,he really is looking for nice Yotas.if you feel you have a Yota worthy of being featured than e-mail him,if he doesen't respond to you than maybe he doesen't feel the same.
