Hey guys, I just recived a copy of a magazine from Poland that features my red GTA and wanted to share. Over the winter I did a photo shoot via email on the authors direction along with some pics I took from the photoshoot I did last January(except for the pics from the track, those were taken by my friend Artie). Unfortunatly I cant read it so I hope all the information is accurate. Enjoy :)

Hey that is cool Steve, probabrly the first GTA in print over there :-)

Have to ask one of my collegues to pick up a copy for me!
 
Very cool, I saw it in Gm High Tech magazine too, I didn't know that it was a manual trans, or at least the pics look like a 5spd.

Yeah the center console is from a 5-speed car because the opening for the shifter and the leather boot is bigger allowing me to position the shifter on a slight angle thats more natural to the way your arm moves when shifting. The trans is a TH400 with a Hughes transbrake and an ATI 9" converter.

Yeah, I thought you had mentioned you where running a TH400, the console thru me off, i had a 5 spd GTA so I was taken by the photo. A manual would probably be a lot of fun, but inconsistant. :cowboy:
 
awesome, would be kind of weird having my car featured in a magazine in a country I've never been in and not even be able to read the article haha. Congrats though.
 
Congrats Steve! Some where I have a photocopy of a TTA in a Swedish magazine. I used to know some people that could translate the Polish article but I've lost touch with them.

Did you ever make the move upstate to the new house yet?

Yeah it is a little weird but I figured how often would I get the chance to be, as Jim said, international :)

Did not totally make the move, but #124 and #884 have been up there scince last year. We're about do some landscaping and looking to put up a new garage that can house my 6 current cars with room to grow and a workshop area with lift. That stuff has got to get done before we are 100% up there. Hopefully get all that done by next spring then look be up there for good(of course I'll still have ties with the city that will keep me around pretty often).

So much to do and no time, I havent even driven a TTA yet this year :(
 
Congrats Steve!
Anyone out there that can get me a copy? Hint hint.
You weather seems to be how ours will be in a few weeks.
And I can't believe that you haven't driven your car this year.
I drove mine twice.
Once from the shop, and to one local car cruise. ;)
