    I've got endless piles of old car and tractor mags, inherrited from my grandpa and my dad, and a bunch I have collected over the last 5 years...I've got them in binders, and organized by year and all that stuff. Mostly I just read them. I'm still trying to finish a stack of old Truckin' mags I got off here a while ago from Jakespeed.

    Black out my name and leave them at the Drs. office. May be it will get someone else interested in rodding, all they go to look at are Home Beauteful or My Poor Sole.

    I bought an old store magazine rack that holds over 500 mags for 40 bucks. Put it out in the shop for reference.

    I keep the ones I want and sell or give away the rest to other car guys. Have sold a lot of old car mags on ebay. They are a good source of info when building an old style rod.
     
  15. I've started collecting literature and mags from 40s-60s. A lot of the early articles by George Barris. Priceless research. Thats stuff you would never give away.

    Find a place to hide 'em until opportunity presents itself. I picked up a showcase for CHEAP and it needed some new wallpaper, so I used of my Car Craft doubles. If nothing else, find a cool rack...I did!:D
