                         verybody knows by now that social media

                         is a very powerful tool. Steve Lourenco
                         found out in a big way soon after he
                   E completed his beastly ’41 International. He

                   didn’t think much of it as he pulled into his fi rst
                   car show with his truck. That soon changed
                   as he parked it and emptied the bags. People
                   stopped what they were doing and gathered
                   around Steve’s creation en masse. They started

                   taking pictures and of course, posting them to
                   Facebook. One of those pictures wound up in
                   RRM Director of Photography Jerry Ripley’s

                   feed. He immediately put out the word to fi nd
                   the truck’s owner. From there it didn’t take long
                   to set up a shoot.
