    Well all this past week I have been helping my girlfriends parents renovate and move into their new house. As a thank you from them I was given the pile of magazine's from the basement. There was a mix of hunting gardening house renovation and a few adult mags of the over 40 age bracket. But there are around 200 car mags. Some of which are car craft from the early 60's. And there was a book from 1946 on the maintenance and repair of carter carbs. But the sweetest thing I think is a page from somewhere on the proper method tuning your race hemi. I have not yet scratched the surface of awesome reading.

    To take the musty smell out of old magazines, put in a micro-wave for about a minute.

    I may be interested in some late 60's CC. They ran a series of plans to build your own t bucket from (I believe) around Sep '67 through the final feature Feb '68. I could be totally wrong, but I wouldn't mind getting a hold of the one w/ the frame plans since my dad built my T from those issues back then.

    Keep me in mind please. Thx
     
  7. But how do I get the musty smell out of the micro-wave then? :eek:

    How is the condition of the 'over 40 adult' magazines? Pages wrinkled, or saggy?

    Well as I go through I have started to separate the ones that I want to keep. I am not going to keep many but there are some cool ones.

    Here is an article from Custom rodder August 1982 on how to chop a Merc.

    Pretty sure that was a rerun from the Street Rodder Merc special (1974?).

    But it's FUNNY on so many others...

    I remember when I got a load of old rodding mags from my cousin. The entire club sat around reading "car porn" for weeks, often til after midnight & we all had to go to work in the am.

    Enjoy them all!
