Managing Editor of Ol' Skool Rodz and Car Kulture DeLuxe magazines and freelance writer/photographer.

Ol' Skool Rodz and Car Kulture DeLuxe are hot rod and custom car kulture magazines, sold nationwide and in Europe, Australia, Japan, Canada, etc. They are the best selling hot rod oriented magazines in Barnes & Noble, Borders, Waldenbooks, Wal-Mart, 7-11, Safeway, etc.

We have pinups in every issue and we use models for many of our car feature shoots. We seek pinup and vehicle feature shoot models who can do a pinup-style retro look. Tattoos are OK, but not required. No facial piercings or hula-hoop size ear lobes, please.

Also looking for excellent photographers in tune with the hot rod and custom car kulture. We have feature oppportunites all over the U.S. and beyond.

E-mail samples to me at alan@koolhousepublishing.com. Same e-mail for contributor guidelines, model releases, car and bike tech sheets, etc.

Models, please contact me if you have the look we are after.

Photographers, we often need a local photog to shoot cars with models in various locations around the country. Show me your work. It's always best to query first about a subject because we have narrow guidelines for vehicles we feature.

If you have some cool ideas for some great shoots within our genre, let's hear 'em! Thanks for checking out my portfolio.
