I get the magazine, It is ligitimate and very interesting. No ads,
black and white only, but they go into a lot of detail on the types
of projects I tend to do. Right now, they are doing a series on
a frame (unibody?) up restoration on a Dodge Charger (they are not
truck only) that has gone on for many issues. The first article of
the series dealt with how to support the car securely on stands,
among other things.
They have also done articles on upholstry, including sewing your
own if you are so inclined, rebuilding engines and transmissions,
and even rebuilding electrical switches, The emphasis seems to
be on projects that someone could do in their own garage with normal
tools, generally no English wheels making new fender patches from
scratch. The projects seem aimed more at drivers as opposed to concours
restorations that never run. I've found it to be an extremely useful
and confidence building magazine that is well worth the money.
Did I mention that I like the magazine?
