  • Man, I love Hot Rod Deluxe

    I'm not a fan of long, drawn out articles that are mainly just "fluff". Hot Rod Deluxe has tons of great pictures with Xlnt, short captions that stick just to the facts. It's a great Potpouri(sp) of what I love about hot rodding. The latest issue, which I've only just thumbed through so far, is as good as it gets. Hell, it even seems like they hand pick advertisers that are appropriate to the theme. Great job guys

    Ok....I know it's been said before, but I can't remember. Is this a news stand only mag?

        Yep, Newsstand only, and one of the top newsstand sellers for Source Interlink. Great mag, and it's all DF and help from Dave Wallace.

          Some guy named Brad is a regular contributor as well. ;D

          No joke, aside from the obvious photo goodness, Brad's tech is the real reason I keep buying HRD.

            HRD is great. A little heavy on the girlie pix, but that's alright.

            Just got the latest Rodder's Journal yesterday. There's something like 40 pages of very good pictures and a short desciption of the car pictured. They're calling it the RJ hall of fame; all the cars pictured are significant. Think the Hirohito Merc and one of Snake's early diggers.

                I love the mag too. I'll flip through it rather quickly for an overview and then read it completely, cover to cover. My interests have always been postwar hot rodding and I love all the Hot Rod archives pics. The mag is truly one of a kind although I could also pass on the wannabe pin-up girls

                  Great mag. It's top of my favs these days because of how DF honors the history of rodding. The girls are a nice plus too.

                    I read it last night and was just thinking about what a great mag it is. I love that brutal red pickup on the cover. And the engine pics were fantastic. Oh for the days when folks dropped something beside the generic Chebby single carb motor on a rod. I also always enjoy the patina pics.

                    Its a great read every time.

                        It's my favorite mag. Now only if DF would do subscriptions, I'd gladly pay the full cover price just to know I can get it regularly. Some of the stores only carry 2 copies by me.
