    side valve, now you're ******* me off. I was being sarcastic, fool. I'm glad we have Ol' Skool Rodz, but the writing in it is the most immature and juvenile I've ever read. I'll buy it anyway, just like I buy The Horse.
    And IMHO The Horse is the same. It's a mere shadow of it's former self. Bring back Snow, he was a great writer.
    Like I said there's room for both, and I buy them both.

    But TRJ is heads above anything that came before or anything that's likely ever to come.

    Surely you can buy one less pack of chewing tobacco a week, side valve, and pony up the $12.95 for a TRJ every other month?

    TRJ is a cool mag. It's good to have you fella's joing our group of hotrodders. Thanks for the auctions. I'm sure Ryan and the rest of us appreciate your support and any input you may have. Watch those Michigan people...they are kind of odd!!! [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Hey TRJ. Not to brag about the talent on this board but check out the cool art on the canendar some of us did. Maybe a news release in TRJ on where to buy the best hot rod calendar EVER??? Just a thought.

    I've been into TRJ since #1 but I agree - Bring Ganahl back! It's great to begin with but Pat made it that much better!!
    Welcome aboard
     
  9. last night when I first replied to this post I thought a few of you might be pissed at me but I guess thats not the case.

    Nads is right, the publication is on its own planet as far as quality

    BUT, BUT, But, I dont need to know what Eric Clapton is having someone build him every ****ing issue. What's Brizio building for Kid Rock next issue Steve? Two pullouts of fake hotrods is well..... where is Pat? The blue roadster pickup doesnt have one Ford part on it, not one! There is a whole nation of cool cars out there guys, we all pay you fifty bucks a year to go find them.

    I'm glad they are helping the HAMB out but we all know Steve aint reading our posts about the best Punk bands. Their post was signed TRJ, which means publicity department, not Steve ****an. Goebbels, not Hitler.

    low-n-loud... I think nobody got pissed because you stated a valid opinion. Not an attack. However, every feature or article can't be you favorite.

    I don't know if it was typed by ****an or the receptionist. Does it matter?

    Wait a minute, I read that wrong, you didn't write it.
    Proves my level of comprehension.
    It was still a great article.

    TRJ is great........

    I bid $75.00 But I did not see a deadline for the auction......when is it?


    Unlike some of the rest..........I do not ask for the return of Pat G.

    He was good and I enjoyed his articles. I believe Joe Kress and ****an know whats best for TRJ. Sometimes it is best to change the staff chemistry and get a different view or opinion. This is NOT a slam of PG.

    I would enjoy seeing articles by AV8........Mike Bishop.
    He is a good writer and knows old school rods. He hangs with Vern Tardel so he would have a great source of stories and inspiration. Have Joe Kress call him........

    Reminds me of his 2002 F-350 with 20"s that was being shown at the GNRS. The GNRS for christs sakes.

    Really surprised that none of the mags have hounded Cole into giving up the skinny on the Metalers '36. That thing is going to be a wet dream on wheels.

    You guys have a phenomenal mag. It's one of two I read cover to cover. No fashion ****, no rods my dog could have built (he's a talented boy), just great articles on real hot rods. Keep up the great work guys!

    I would have to agree with Crease. Your publication is the ******* of rodding mags.

    Keep up the great work.

    Certainly can't fault Pat Ganahl for his years as the king editor of TRJ, preceded by his stewardship of R&C through some of its very finest years. Pat is an outstanding historian and meticulous in his craft. When he left R&C the magazine spun down under the hand of a dull and incompetent editor.

    The magazine is a bit better now than it was undet the former stewardship, but it's still very much a lightweight.

    hi again, thanks! im glad you like the idea of us supporting the hamb and ryan! and thanks again for all the great comments, good and bad.

    i guess there is some clarification that needs to be addressed.

    this is actually US! the rodders journal. my name is geoff miles, i am the editorial asociate at trj. it is a collaborative effort that does include steve and our art director suzi. but, i have set it up so that anyone from trj can come on and post or answer a question or go the wisecrack! as i stated before we are seriously busy, but we are going to make an effort to be more a part of this board. please have some patience.

    yes, there will be an auction! all money will go to ryan. we are actually printing the new issue as i type this - i mean literally! i think some of you will be pleasantly suprised at some of the new issues offerings! as soon as i have a page ready we will begin. im thinking a 2 week auction, but you tell me what you think is fair. sorry to those who already had a stab, hope you will go again.

    i will at times give you an update on how things are here at trj, how we are progressing with new stuff, but, i am also going to be showing releases in our spotlight section for the hamb, calanders etcetera. not every single one, but often. we have had discussions about features with ryan and a lot of cool ideas are coming... we dont like to give too much away though.

    as far as our cars go... well i will try to muster up som photos, but it wopnt be for a while... printing and all.

    steve ****an had one of the baddest '32 roadsters ever. he sold it to start the magazine. he now has a '65 riviera. he has plans for another roadster, but right now its time to work on magazines.

    suzi hutsell our art director has a super clean '63 falcon hardtop.

    senior editors joe kress and greg sharp both have *****en hot rods, that i am sure you are all familiar with.

    senior contributing editors jay fitzhugh has a very nice '32 three window in progress, look for it soon. ken gross, well, do i need to explain his car to you? i hope not!

    i am in the throws of a '29 on deuce rails, if i clutter up my cubical with much more ****, steve will punt me out into the studio to work on the floor!

    thats longwinded, but i hope it answers some questions... and its all i can type!

    cheers

    geoff
