IMO a majority of the source interlink mags are junk. There are few car features, how tos that are just ads, and the rest is ads. Use to like the sketch pads but that would take a page for ad. The big laugh was the 50th anniversary of Rod and Custom yes it was created 50 years ago but the magazine was not around for all that time. Typical marketing hype. Also the only reason for chip subs is they can charge more for ads.
I buy rodders journal and hot rod deluxe. Between my own library and the internet I can find the info I want.
