just picked up rj #23. all i can say is it's great. if your into vintage hot rods, it's a must. tons of real photos and history. awsome streamliner story, #990.

Got mine the other day at the book store. 21 bucks that hurt (better renew ) its a good one except I dont like the three cars all lumped together. its like somethings missing or its to much like street rodder. the drylake stuff is killer and edsels speedster thing what a find.

Issue 23 is good but Issue 24 is totally bitchin!

I got a early copy at SEMA and I must say I am extremely impressed with the long awaited (my choice) article on the comparison of the Pierson and SO-CAL coupes and very good article on Stu Hilborn.

At SEMA - early Nov. Apparently it is a pre production copy though you wouldnt really know. I was very fortunate as it was given to me.

Mid-Missouri guys. Where can I find it around here? Barnes and Noble says they don't carry it anymore. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

#23 is good with some great vintage pics, and some great pics of a 32 RPU I had seen on the net.

But the detailed pics of the Pierson and SO-CAL coupes in #24 are outstanding

TRJ is just a great publication, I really don't know why it took me so long to subscribe to it.

TRJ 24 owners (had mine about 3 weeks): Am I the only one that noticed the SERIOUS spelling error?

Of course, maybe Alex Xydias was IMPOTENT....???? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I went to five local bookstores, they either dont carry it or the copys that they do have look like two dogs fought over them. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
