Billy Kingsley Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I just sorted my entire Model Car Magazine collection, and put every title into numerical order...When I did MCM, I discovered that I am only missing two issues since I started reading, and I will have one of them shortly (#117). The other I missed is #88. What my question is, what was the issue number of the Very First Issue of Model Cars Magazine? I started reading with #63 in 2000 and I bought #59 in Toledo a few years back. It almost seems like it's the second or third issue maybe. I want to complete my collection so I'm needing some help from the experts... Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Hey Billy, the premiere issue was Vol 1. Issue 1 October 1999 and has a scratchbuilt Alfa Romeo by Dave Cummins on the cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Kingsley Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Thanks Ray, but what Number was the issue? I'm guessing it was either 58 or 57? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 What's on the cover of the one you are saying is number 63. I ask because on all my 2000 issues they only have the months (ex July/August 2000) I don't see an issue #. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Kingsley Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Cool, I have #2! The number can be found in the box of info (The Indica) right next to Gregg's letter from the editor #63 is the one with the "Las Vegas" Lowrider on the cover.. I know I have seen that cover for 88. Hmm. Perhaps I misplaced it somehow! Thanks Ken and Ray! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
