Hugo's in EGF also is carrying it.  Good magazine and collection of articles, even though the flat motor article was copied directly out of the November 2005 issue of Hot Rod Magazine (Oddly, The only one I have bought in the last 2 years).




Really.....that does suck.

the fact that its got the Hot Rod crew behind it makes me like it alot more.  I read Hot Rod quite a bit, and their Writing skill and ability makes it alot more Credible.  Frieberger is a good writer/Editor.  The layout is alot better than the SHIT that OSR and CKD is now, and isnt full of the bullshit Scene stuff that the others are obscessed with.  Im in it for the cars and Events. Not much else.

Exactly!!! :D

Hot Rod has been sending me subscription incentives for years. Well they finally got down to my price range, 50 cents an issue for 3 years delivered to my door. I sent them a check and got two issue so far, I'll get around to lookin' at them when I finish my Rodders Journal.

I bought one issue too.  I flipped through it, saw the nasty pinup model, then tore it up for my stepmom's cat to use in her litter box.

I saw it the other day at Stop-n-go. I flipped through it and then through TRC and then looked at the price tags. I walked out with TRC.

I paged through it the other day also.  Left without it.  I think they blew their wad on the first issue....disappointed with the second.

July HR DELUXE!
« Reply #27 on: June 04, 2008 4:48 am »
I picked up the new July issue this afternoon.  Good stuff! This one is packed full.

Blaire speed shop '55 Chev, '25 T Roadster from the 50s/60s rebuilt, and quite a few pages on Vern Tardel's ranch.

Worth the buy this time.  :)
