Love those see through photos overlays.......
Do you remember when Hot Rod would do these every issue in the 80's? I had the Rick Dobberton 82' J2000 one on my bedroom wall as a teen for years........there was one guy who did them exclusive back then for everyone......can't remember his name.

I've still got that T-shirt somewhere. Unworn....my girlfriend (now wife of 40 years) wasn't too enthused about me wearing it. But I never threw it away!
