History Magazine covers......picture thread

Here's one I got from a thread on here a long time ago.

 

That one great. Who's the artist, do you know? Looks like cl***ic Norman Rockwell doesn't it

 

The yellow car still exhists in the state you see on this magazine.....another hidden treasure.

 

I have had the pleasure of talking to Him on a number of occlusions,... great guy,... Are there any pictures of the car in that issue ?,..... I would love to see them !!!

 

Gift Wrapped

 

Ben Rizzio did the exhaust on my '28 Tudor in '72. The coupe had already been resting in his garage for 10 years by then. It's still sitting in the exact same spot. And, happily, all 3 of those coupes still exsist!

 

I agree Dean to bad it doesn't come out for the Hot Rod reunion.

 

Headlight wires.

 

Hot Rod 1952, Jan and April covers are both tops. Pure perfection. I don't have pics but they're framed and on the wall...

 

I think each and everyone of the 1952 Hot Rod covers could be considered 'perfection'...

 

Maybe some of you guys from Forth Worth recognize this. The article has features on Drags at Santa Ana, Los Angeles River, Fort Worth. Clubs mentioned in FTW are Barons, Road Lords, Gophers, Nobeletts and Dragons. Even has a full page picture of Norn Grabowsky of Sunland Ca. in his "Ford" that cost him $8,000 and five years to build. Most cars were reported to break 100 MPH with the record of 166.97. Several mentions of speed crazy, dare devil speed manics.

 

An all time favorite...

Hot Rods and Racing cars was a 50's/60's comic book....
