“ Ya Gotta know where to Go….The FUN Starts Here….”
The Who, What Where, When & More! Gearhead Gazzette Magazine, but on our Facebook page and our website too. The majority of the flyers are good and tell everyone what they need to know about your event. Some of what we use and post, as that is our commitment to everyone who sends us a flyer to share, is that we share it. Here comes the feedback we get and agree with. Some of the flyers we get DO NOT have a town or state listed on them. How do you expect people to come to your event if they don’t know where its at. You cant assume people know where you are. Some do...many don’t. When you send us a flyer, make sure to look at it and ask yourself, could I find the show with the info on the flyer? Make sure the WHERE, WHEN, WHAT, TIME, Cost, etc. is clearly on your flyer. Do this and you will get more gearheads to come to your event. Heck, we may even show up too...
Welcome to Summer gearheads! Of course that is un-official as the calendar tells us Summer doesn’t really arrive until June 21st. Could have fooled us in my neck of the woods. Here in Middle Tennessee and pretty much the Southeast region we went from winter to no spring to HOT & HUMID summer like. I know it’s supposed to get hot….but couldn't we have eased into it..LOL One thing is for sure, the number of car shows, cruise-in’s and other gearhead fun ramps up big time for the summer months. Check out this issue and you will see what we mean for the first two weeks in June. One piece of feedback that we get all the time, is about the flyers and info we receive and share for many events. We use what you send us and d some editing to make your listing look good. We share and use the event flyers that you send us too. We not only use them in the

The NEW Stroker McGurk Embossed Tin Garage Sign New to the StrokerByMedley collection is a high-quality tin garage sign, based on the classic"Stroker McGurk - The Hot Rodder's Buddy" water-slide decal that was included in the 1960s-era Stroker plastic model kits. (That decal, by the way. is also included in the new, reissued kits.) The sign -- 16 x 10.5 inches in size -- is die-stamped and embossed, with four pre-stamped holes for easy mounting. Considering the crazy, innovative tricks Stroker pulled off in his garage, it's only natural to have a Stroker tin sign hanging on your shop wall offering inspiration and guidance. The Stroker McGurk tin sign is available now at strokerbymedley.com -- along with a host of other Stroker-related goodies, from decals to prints to apparel. Medley was one of Hot Rod magazine's original staff members in 1948. His cartoons and photography chronicled America's post WWII car culture. In the 1960s, as publisher of Rod & Custom magazine, Medley also created the first Street Rod Nationals as a means to promote driving hot rods on the street. Medley's artistry and innovation helped define an era. To learn more about him, view the documentary STROKER. To order any Tom Medley memorabilia visit strokerbymedley.com.

What We're Looking For In A Car: Authenticity Have you ever seen a car and said, “That looks like a Hot Wheels?” We’re looking for that “Hot Wheels-ness” that nails the amazing performance and outrageous design we’re known for. Originality We’ve made over 25,000 unique vehicle models in the past 50 years, so we’re looking for something with unique details that stands out from the rest. Garage Spirit It’s built, not bought, just like Hot Wheels. We’re looking to see some elbow grease that exemplifies the challenger spirit it took to build. Entries will be judged by five criteria (20 points per criteria = 100 points total). Even Legends play by the rules!
