Harry P. Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 MCM Hemming's Classic Car Hemming's Muscle Machines No time for any others! Heck, I don't even actually read HCC or HMM, I just skim them. Wish I had the time to actually read them! But I have the whole set from day one... can't quit now! Besides, I've had a letter published in HMM, so I'm a "contributing editor!"

Not to mention the cool articles and profiles they do about builders and parts makers from back in the day.
Chuck Most Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 I used to love Custom Rodder. I was really disapointed when it was cancelled a few years ago. I used to go through every issue for days. I like Rod & Custom too but I don't buy it all that often any more. Of corse I get every issue of MCM from my local hobby shop. That way I'm supporting Gregg and the shop at the same time. Same here... both times. The modern-style customs in Custom Rodder still influence quite a few of my modeling projects to this day. I'm also a big fan of Car and Driver- not so much for modeling inspiration as for the sharp wit of John Phillips! The magazines which DO inspire my modeling are Model Cars Magazine (well, duh!!!!!), and 'those other two' (One's title rhymes with Sail Otto, the other with Wine Snail Toddler). Others include... Old Skool Rods Rebel Rods (which, I believe John Teresi's dad is involved with) Hot Rod Rod & Custom Street Rodder Custom Classic Trucks Vintage Truck Rodder's Journal Hot Rod Deluxe Amusin Cruisin' (Spin off of Rebel Rods and recently canceled) Jp (They're Jeep only, but they are almost as entertaining to read as the late Stuff) And the few old 'little page' publications I have
roadhawg Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Other than MCM, FSM, and SA, the IPMS Journal, Landline (a trucking magazine published by OOIDA) and Auto Restorer. Everything else I get off the internet, where you ALWAYS get the truth. Edited August 2, 2010 by roadhawg
Chuck Most Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Forgot Cars & Parts... great source for reference on weathered vehicles!
Agent G Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Mostly Rod and Custom. I'm fortunate that every Saturday morning the locals have a get together called "Cars and Coffee" on a mall lot nearby. I've gone down there many mornings with the model car club and just hung out taking photos. Henderson blocks off the downtown area every September for "Super Run". It lasts all weekend and we have a model show in conjunction with the big cars. Great for inspiration, however all I can afford are the small cars. G

Greg Myers Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 The Rodder's Journal Hot Rod Delux Muscle Car Review I have Hot Rod starting from 1955. I gave up last year.Articles just weren't viable and they rarely finish their projects. Their findings are usually flawed as well,"this didn't work so we *** or we couldn't get a *** so we***". Who has the money to throw around like they do? Much less all the "friends" that just drop by with the missing parts you need or can't afford ?
