pretty cool ,my dad has a 29 model A ford truck.too bad its not an indiana plate;)
 
Well, not car magazines, but model trains. I had a subscription to Model Railroader and one day at a 'convention' type thing someone was selling old issues. I got the one from my birthmonth. It was actually pretty good with some interesting stuff in it. It was really interesting to see what had changed and what had stayed the same.
 
The oldest car mazgine i have is probably the one about the Mazda RX-8.

Naw i was just playing i have to look around for the mazginies then i tell you.
 
I have around 10 to 15 more .They are mostley from mid 50's to around 62. Heres one of the first "big" car craft magazine

Interesting headers treatment... I wonder how efficient this was?

Oldest mag I have, I'm pretty sure it's a 1992 issue of Popular Mechanics. Not really all that old, but I was a kid back then, almost a miracle it's still readable!

I could scan the article inside it shows some more pics of the car if you would like to see more of the headers
 
I have some Popular Mechanics issues from the late 60's and early 70's (in Spanish). Also have a French car magazine from 1969 called L'Salon de L'Auto or something like that... showed all the cars available in France for that year... I'll see if I can scan it, and hopefuly not tear it. I also have other 50s car magazines and an a couple of Italian magazines called "Quattroruote" or something like that from the late 80s... I'll see what I can scan soon and post them... what's the size limit for a posted image?
