We have dozens of trucks in our feature files that will unfortunately never run in the magazine. What can we do to those quality and custom trucks?

Sometimes, we screw up and sometimes circumstances don't work out for a certain truck to make it into the mag. If we put these feature-worthy trucks in a separate area of the website as "Web Exclusive Features", would you check them out? We feel horrible when a truck is shot and never runs (a very small percentage by the way), but it does happen. I think this could be cool. The features would have small but valuable edit and photos you could click on and check out. What do you think?
We need your help- please post a comment so those deserving truck owners will get their 15 minutes of fame.
Thanks-

4. Unfortunately I know of a few vans that were shot and never made it into the magazine. So I'd love to see these forgotten features shown here. I imagine if there was enough positive reaction some of these rides would get featured.
Winning 10 foot trophies is great but getting that feature in Truckin' is the ultimate reward for a truck owner's hard work.

5. It would be real cool to post stuff up on the site so proud truckers and vanners can get some "props" and be recognized by Truckin for all of their blood, sweat and tears.
I would definitely click on, to check them out.
I like to see "real world trucks built by the guys who drive them, and not built by mega money shops. anyone can just pay someone to do a job but there is no better pride than doing it yourself.
The more custom trucks you look at the more ideas you can incorporate into your own truck project.

6. It would seem that placing them online would be beneficial to not only the owners but also this website. Greater traffic could develop as word gets out that some guy or girl's truck was featured in the online feature column of Truckinweb.
