    I don't know if it's even legal, but I was wondering if anybody knows of a source where you can view old magazines online.

    I am thinking something like Rikster's custom archive, but with old hot rod mags.

    Any of you guys have any links?

    I've thought about doing this myself for on my website with some of the short run ***les like "HONK" etc. Any info would be great on this.

    I want to say there was someone putting out cd's with old complete year iissues of some of the drag ***les from the 60's...i.e. Super Stock & Drag Illustrated, Drag Racing, Drag Strip etc... While it was not online, it was a source of info....BUT...I don't remember when/where I saw it.

    Wow, that link is awesome!

    I just got into collecting old car mags and I have a thing for track nose roadsters. Love the scans.

    Wow!!! What a great site!! I remember some of those later ones. I was a very young kid (my wife says I am still a kid) when I read those and tried to build some of them in plastic. It is amazing I can't remember stuff 5 years ago but I could remember these from 45 -50 years ago. Thanks for posting the site.

    I planned to do that with my old kustom magazines, but I don't know enough about websites to do it on my own and the university I work for won't give me the space or support to do it, so it's just sitting on the back burner until some computer whiz comes along to tell me how to go about doing it without spending a bunch of money.
