Yeah I would have to agree with the consensus. I have not had the years to watch the hot rod culture, but have been fortunate enough to find large collections of older issues and gotta say they are far more enjoyable to read. Rod & Custom was doin good for a while when they started back up but have turned into every other add campaign mag the past few years. Though the low brough "rat rod" thing is getting more attention again with us younger guys and has cought the atttention of some of the mags. But the truth is the majority of the articles are nuthin more than adds themselves and it's good business. I have cancelled my scrips fer R&C and StreetRodder, only buy em once in a while when theres time at the grocer to make sure sumpin worth reading is in there. I got enough 60-90 scrips on the shelves at home to read one a day fer the next 3 years. Plus over here we got The Scrounger wich is just as good as goin to the junkyard, hehe.
