    Motor sports nov 1946.jpg Popular_Science_Magazine_November_1946-.jpg

    There wasn't much to pick from in November 1946 but that Motor sports cover sure looks interesting.

    Ha, so true!

    I was born December of '62, the time of cool late 50's & early 60's Hot Rods & Customs.

    Anyone care to put up some mag pics from Nov '61? I can't seem to copy them off the internet correctly, I guess.

    April of 1944. No car mag that month. Just as well. I couldn't read till I was four and I was six before I could hold an arc.

  24. DAM! born in 1939 and there were no hot rod books around back then....
     
  25. I actually remember both of those covers. just didn't know when they were. My granddad had boxes of Popular Mechanics and Popular Science when I was little. That was part of keeping me out of his hair, well that and a slide rule that I thought was a kids toy, until I took calculus in high school.LOL
