Title: VMX Cheney Sachs

Great piece in the new VMX Magazine about Dale Fisher's Cheneys. Ken Smith always does a great job, and Dale's pictures are outstanding.

I'll admit that unquestionably the article has capped off a pretty terrific year.

Since the article was primarily on the Cheney they neglected to note the other 2010 Championship - Sportsman 100 Novice - '74 Penton Berkshire (//Merry%20Christmas%20and%20the%20best%20of%20Holidays%20to%20all!Hopefully%20the%20Jackpiner%20will%20join%20in%20on%20the%20fun%20next%20season.....%5BIMG%5Dhttp://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae59/CheneySachs/Tomahawk2010157.jpg)

Dale,  How is your most recently acquired Cheeney Sachs project?  Is it also featured in the VMX issue?   Joe

The second Cheney is mentioned but not pictured.  It is patiently waiting in the garage for further attention.  After I test cleaned a couple of areas and polished one side of the tank and a side panel remorse set it on whether to leave it "completely" original (thanks Paul LOL).  I bombarded VMX with pictures over the summer, provided them some text from the POG article, and they massaged them into the two page article.  Ken the editor contacted me thru an association with Mark Firkin who also has his Cheney Yamaha 360 in the issue.  I created a Facebook Cheney page now with 76 members and make a pest of myself on Facebook and worldwide forums.
