Custom classic trucks? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

camaro41701 · 09-23-2008, 02:11 PM

When will the next issue be out?

67ChevyRedneck · 09-23-2008, 02:13 PM

I just got mine in the mail last week... so maybe 2-3 weeks at the newstands?

Why, will your truck be in it?

72BlckButy · 09-23-2008, 02:45 PM

I receive mine on different days each month... it's like waiting for a Christmas gift and not knowing what day Christmas is on.

It used to always arrive on the 5th, now there's no telling...

Gray Ghost · 09-23-2008, 02:49 PM

Same here....just when ya think ya got it figgered out...

72BlckButy · 09-23-2008, 02:52 PM

And as much as I wouldn't mind the "mail person" reading it, it still comes crisp and clean as ever...

68GMCCustom · 09-23-2008, 05:02 PM

I am a subscriber to both Classic Trucks and Custom Classic Trucks. I've renewed my Classic Truck subscription but have delayed the other.

Is it just me.... or is CCT just a wilder (& weaker) version of CT, and a waste of $ if you already take CT? There seems to be little relevant content, and I feel like I'm paying twice for all the same ads...

That's how they get your money...

I wish i had a subscription

PanelDeland · 09-23-2008, 05:08 PM

They claim to feature different trucks.That may be but they all follow the same theme.I take both but really look forward to "Truck Builder"

I also have subs to
Hot Rod
Car Crap
Rod and Custom

I can no longer find a couple by Buckaroo Publications that I like.
I usually look thru the cars and event coverage in the "Kulture" mags at the local B&N but find the "tradition" in them is skewed.

LOW DOUGH · 09-23-2008, 05:12 PM

Car Crap

thirdstreettito · 09-23-2008, 08:28 PM

I have
ChevyHiPerformance
HotRod
Truckin'
DieselPowerMag
TurboDieselRegister
8-Lug
TruckTrend
MotorTrend
Rides

I think a few more....

Oh I know that.....a lot of publications are owned by prime media (or whatever)...I'm just saying (or asking) why pay for CCT if you take CT? Can anyone think of a good reason...a difference?

...and I take my fair share of magazines...CT, CCT, Motor Trend, Truck Trend, Chevy High Performance, GM High Tech Performance, Hot Rod, Sport Truck, etc. etc.

**Boog** · 09-23-2008, 10:17 PM

Precisely why I have dropped one of em. CT I think. As a matter of fact I've decided to allow all of my subs to run out and I'll start all over with only a few. I am getting 2 calls per month from mag sub renewal firms and cannot remember who I bought them from before. I think I have one mag sub good until 2018!

70cstjr · 09-24-2008, 12:49 AM

they keep sending my magazine saying this is your final issue...that started 3 months ago..maybe it finally ran out

**Palf70Step** · 09-24-2008, 06:24 AM

I never seem to know when mine will show up. I wonder if they read it at the Post Office first before they deliver it.

The only other one I subscribe to is Auto Restorer.

rod86 · 09-24-2008, 06:25 AM

i can only get CCT over here from the news agent, they dont get alot of US car in over here.
i only buy CCT, mopar muscle and musclecar review...

ed2552 · 09-24-2008, 06:15 PM

I only get Hot Rod and Car Craft. I really want 8 Lug Diesel and Diesel Power, so i may drop one when their subs run out in 09, and get the other 2 instead.

abebummy26 · 09-24-2008, 06:30 PM

I get cct and ct, but I will probably stop subscribing. Once my subscription is up at the the beginning of the year. I have switched to liking the 4x4s so that magazine doesn't have much content for me. I how ever can not find a single 4x4 mag that I really like I've tried peterson's and four wheeler. I haven't tried 8 lug yet though.
