Auto Restorer Magazine... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**1971Stepside** · 02-21-2003, 01:37 PM

Is anyone else subscribed to this little magazine? My wife got me a subscription for Christmas and I have recieved two issues and find it to be real informative. Of course they don't stick to just trucks, but they give a lot of good tips and such.

Here is a link to the web site:

I HAVE RECEIVED THIS MAG FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS NOW AND REALLY LIKE IT! I REALLY LIKE THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO ADVERTISING,AND ALL OF THE ITEMS THEY SHOP TEST ARE OBJECTIVE BECAUSE OF THAT. JUST MY HUMBLE OPINION

I had it for a year a while back..I didn't really care for it. There were a few good tips every once in a while but nothing that I couldn't have found out here or in one of my other mags. I got sick of seeing stupid stuff like 74 Mustang II's being restored or AMC Matadors.

Just throwin in my double lincolns as well

I had a sub for a year and let it run out because is was to much to pay for the amount of information There was a little bit of good information but you can get more information off of this forum for free.

I have subscribed for about 8 yrs. Alot of good general knowledge on all phases of work. The first couple of years I recieved it it was in color with alot more pages, and shipped in clear wrapper.

I have recieved since 1996, the old color version had adds they dropped the adds and went b/w. It is a bit pricey, but I feel it is worth the $$. I feel it is a better value than any other mag out there!
