Hotrod Empire Inc. - 2nd book by Pixeleye!

Hot Rod Empire, Inc. Review in Garage Magazine #19 (USA)
The combination of hot rods, kustoms, and pin up models is sure a fine winner - afteral you are holding an issue of Garage in your hands, aren´t you? Well imaging a 128 page coffee table book of nothing but page ater page of photosof that subject matter and each and every one is suitable for framing. We could only imagine the volume of photos that Dirk Behlau had to omit to shrink his selection down to fit inside this book. What we wouldn´t give to see the worldthrough Dirk´s lens just for one day.
Thanks a lot to Jesse James (West Coast Choppers) for putting my book into Garage Magazine #19!

Do you like hot rods? How about sexy girls? Are you a Kustom Kulture Addict? Do you crave some original, decent literature? Then look no further! Jonny Ace is here with what you're looking for.
