Reviews"At times, the writing so captures the scene at the moment that it's almost possible to smell oil, and there's even a temptation to look back for greasy fingerprints after a page is turned."-- ClassicCars.Ride-CT.com, What I really dig about the HOT ROD Magazine: 75 Years. Is the way they broke it out by decades. I can dig deep into the historical figures of the 1940s. Or when the mood hits, get groovy over the crazy cars and dragsters of the 1960s. If you have a garage library like I do, then this is a MUST-HAVE on your shelf. A timeless tome that you will share with your brothers over pizza after installing that new intake

Synopsis" HOT ROD Magazine: 75 Years is the official illustrated history of automotive enthusiasts' favorite magazine. Here is the officially licensed anniversary celebration of the world's longest continuously published and best-known automotive magazine. HOT ROD Magazine: 75 Years celebrates the stunning content that has been created and published by the magazine's staff in all or parts of nine decades. Witness how HOT ROD has been on scene for the entirety of the postwar performance movement with photographs and articles detailing dragsters, roadsters, slingshots, Funny Cars, coupes, customs, lead sleds, muscle cars, and their builders and owners. Take a look back through pages that have captured the imaginations of gearheads nationwide by featuring the works of customizing greats like Ed ""Big Daddy"" Roth, Von Dutch, and George Barris, to name a few. There's also a look at the great journalism of such hot-rodding legends as Gray Baskerville, and the creations of builders like Pete Chapouris, Boyd Coddington, Steve Moal, Roy Brizio, and Chip Foose-complete with decades of archival black and white and color photographs of the cars and personalities that comprise hot rodding history. In the late 1940s, a young photographer and Army Air Corps veteran named Robert E. Petersen astutely noted the rapidly growing hot rod scene in Southern California. Buoyed by war veterans with tech savvy, disposable income, and a need for speed, the hot-rodding hobby was without much in the way of informational publishing. In a brilliant stroke, Petersen stepped into the void in 1948, launching HOT ROD magazine. Petersen Publishing would grow into a worldwide media empire featuring several publications. Today, HOT ROD magazine endures as one of the most iconic enthusiast publications ever. HOT ROD is not simply a magazine-after 75 years, it's still the magazine of automotive enthusiasts, known and appreciated the world over.
