Keeping your car magazines

[Robert96]

 I have hundreds of mags. Some like Hemmings Muscle Machines are gereral and some are Mopar speific.  I keep them all in perfect shape and in order according to year, month, etc.  Yes I am ANAL about my mags. but I think some time in the future they might help people out. They are always fun to pull out and take another look at now and then.

It absolutely drives my wife nuts that I keep them all.  I haven't gotten a Mopar specific rag in a while now.  I screwed up my order with Musclecar Review & am paid up until Jan. '15.

Also got a good price on Hot Rod so I'm locked in with them for a while.

Biggest mistake I made was getting subscriptions to all the Mopar rags at the same time.  The same cars' cycle through all of them during the course of the subscription.

I have some car magazine from '99 that talk about the Charger concept, as well as head to head articles between the newly debuted New Edge Mustangs and 4.1 Gen LS1 Camaro's.  I don't need them, but that period was the beginning of my official foray into cars so it's about the sentimental aspect....

They're all sentimental.



A couple years back I got on Mopar Muscle's forum & asked about a rag from the '90's that featured a how to with Roger Gibson doing up a factory correct Hemi car engine bay.

My buddy loaned me his copy, it took a lot of arm twisting for him relinquish it so I could scan it for copies.   A year or two passed, he forgot & it got destroyed.

Roger Bolig, editor @ MM answered my request on the forum.  He tracked down which month it was & sent me 2 copies....FREE OF CHARGE.  It about floored me, since I'm only about 4' off the ground I guess that would be pretty easy but pretty cool nonetheless.
