Excellent article, well done Stephan, can't wait for my dad to read it and get his take on it as he is a dyed in the wool hot rod and muscle car fan :) Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine...........

After Hod Rod's publishing of Stephan's nice article in August, it prompted me to take out a subscription to the magazine. The October issue showed in the mail last night and in the letters to the editor section, the letter of the month was from a guy that was "Blown Away" at seeing VW's in Hot Rod (he thought it was very cool!). The editor wrote to say that they expecfted a flood of hate mail, but surpisingly the vast majority was positive! Also, a nice pic (small) of Patrick Friel's '56 with the front wheels up. Ya never know... 8) 8) 8) Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: Gunter on August 23, 2007, 16:02:19 pm please post this pic Sarge
just for us poor Europeans :) Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: Sarge on August 23, 2007, 16:51:41 pm please post this pic Sarge just for us poor Europeans :) Check your e-mail! Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: javabug on August 23, 2007, 17:30:05 pm I've been waiting for "part II"—where all the letters come in.
Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: Sarge on August 23, 2007, 18:25:44 pm I've been waiting for "part II"—where all the letters come in. Hey Mike, there were letters in the September issue, too. You might want to consider a subscription...two years for $18.00 which is a real bargain compared to the king's ransom we have to spend to get those high priced European VW mags ;D ;D ;) Who knows, maybe they might have some more VW's in the future, right?? Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: Gunter on August 23, 2007, 18:42:54 pm please post this pic Sarge just for us poor Europeans :) Check your e-mail! thanks Sarge here it is Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: Sarge on August 23, 2007, 19:45:04 pm Right on, Gunter!
Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: javabug on August 24, 2007, 02:45:10 am I think I have the September issue...gotta re-check it. I was thinking about a new subscription, but my neighbor has a sub, and passes them on to me after he's done.
I had a subscription to HOT ROD for many years, until I went away to college, I think. Grew up on it, really. I have to say, picking it up again after about 10 years or more, I am not disappointed. Thankfully they haven't gotten stupid! Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: Sarge on August 24, 2007, 15:46:13 pm I think I have the September issue...gotta re-check it.

I stand corrected...no letters in the September issue. There was a nice editorial by the Editor-in-Cheif David Freiburger though. The guy is a VW man at heart it seems... 8) Title: Re: Hot Rod magazine........... Post by: javabug on August 24, 2007, 16:12:03 pm I'll definetly have to look that up. I love to read about all the projects he has. I thought I had some crazy ideas!
