Another new one doing a '67 frame up project is called TRUCK BUILDER. Great pictures and some cool ideas. The series of articles started with frame resto and now they have the body on prepping for paint. I think what sold me was the 572" lump they're using .

I guess that's a matter of opinion. Nevertheless, they still offer valuable information.
Here's mine:
Truck Builder
Streettrucks
Sporttruck
Custom Classic Trucks
Truckin- Theyve got a good article every once in a while, but you've got to look through the hundreds of pages of ads and boats first

TRUCKGUY · 02-04-2005, 12:12 PM

i have bout a couple custom classic trucks and classic trucks and there both good. i have subscribed to custom classic trucks (i Think)

1971 Cheyenne · 02-04-2005, 01:12 PM

Classic Trucks all the way,

96blazr · 02-04-2005, 01:47 PM

Truck Builder?? Never heard of them, so.....

I called them and I'm gonna get one issue to see if I'd like it.
It looks like a good Publication.

What do you think if it 4x4poet?

You ain't kidding, that's why I hardly ever buy it, plus it's price has gotten out of control!

And then add to that Speed Boats!? IF I wanna read about boats I'll buy a fricken Boat Mag. Too much of that stupid Bling, Bling Stuff for me.

weasel29gm · 02-04-2005, 04:18 PM

Classic Truck and Custom Classic Truck...... The others have late model stuff that most of time don't interest me.

biglou55 · 02-04-2005, 04:19 PM

Classic truck and Truck builder are the two best in my opinion. just my o2

I hadn't heard of either mag until this thread. Sorry if my post misled. I posted that I was excited at my having found on Truckbuilder's site that they also offer a 4x4Builder mag. I'm mostly into 4x4s. I think I'll subscribe to both Builder mags and dump a 4x4 mag that has become boring and uninformative. I can forgive boring but never uninformative. The Builder mag prices were too high, though. If they're no good, I may have to use their refund for undelivered issues option.

beagler · 02-05-2005, 10:54 AM

who needs mags when you got the boards?? huh? I don't do a lot of mag reading I get the question and crap I have all my questions/ideals answered on here lol.

**N2TRUX** · 02-05-2005, 12:20 PM

My favorites-
Classic Trucks
Custom Classic Trucks
StreetTrucks
Truckin
Sport Truck

I guess I'm one of those "open minded" guys that likes all kinds of trucks. Especially Classic Trucks even if they did run a "late model" 77 in it this past month....
