Hey guys, I am Tim, editor of CRAWL Magazine. We're looking for some SICK XJ's for feature rigs, readers rides and tech articles. Send them in if ya got 'em, information is below.

Alright, we're looking for your rigs. Starting in our May/June issue we're going to have a reader's rides type section (it will have a more unique title than that) and will feature probably 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.

Copy/Paste this list to an email and fill it out, and send along with a few high res photos to: rides@crawlmag.com

Would something like this work?

It's not on 35's, also it just has a crappy 3 1/2" lift and 30's. But the stereo kick's it..

Will there be some form of compensation for this? I can see you making some change from our efforts, what's in it for us?

EDIT:

...or better yet... Why doesn't CRAWL attend a few of our local events with Crawl's own photographers and take their own photos (with our permission to use, of course)???

If Okie doesn't submit his rig I'll submit it for him.

They said they wanted sick. :D

What a way to make the club look good. You get a chance to show off your rig in a rag.

Do us a favor and shut your trap. :rolleyes:

Am I completely in the dark again? I guess I shouldn't worry about it, I like it there.

Is it really necessary to bump a bunch of old threads about Crawl?

If "two" is a bunch.... then yeah... why not? We have a guy here that posted when they had a new issue out. So yeah, I can respond as I see fit. Do you wanna see the press release about the the failure and posts about theft too? Would that make you feel better?

Considering this thread http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=979956
gives people the info they need, bumping old threads about them just seems like some are trying to stir drama, laugh at their misfortune, etc.

Aww, gee, that sucks. Too bad you see it that way.


I see a "Magazine" post about their wares in a manner that seems like spam on a forum I have managed for ~10 years.... yeah, I have no love lost that they did not manage their business in a proper manner and got ripped off by one of their own. We have been there, and managed to sort it out. If they are not able to do that... that is on them.

Glenn you're just bitter and old. That's what happens when you deal with moss backs too long. :laugh2:
