Re: The good old days
I love reading my old Hot Rod, Popular Hot Roding, Car Craft, and the Spotlight magazines. I have a 4 foot stack of magazines that I go through one after the other. I have this in my basement Laundry / shower / bathroom lol..
I always find something new. I'm reading a excellent article in the 1960 Hot Rod December. Its about rods and torque and dwell time. An article like that today would never fly, people were definatly smarter back then.

I had stacks of Hot Rod, Popular Hot Rodding, and Circle Track from the 80’s and 90’s. We tossed them all during our last move a few years back.
