The Printed Page
The internet is special for gaining access to ideas and info on anything and everything. Pulling images or watching YouTube How-To’s are a benefit the Web.
But sitting down with a printed magazine is still a joy. There are periodicals out there dedicated to Hot Rods and Customs, many have been in publications for decades.
Some of the 1950 and 1960 issues of Hot Rod yield amazing design cues that are timeless. Of the newer rags, my personal favorites are Ol’ Skool Rodz and Rat Rod. Both blends cars, news, and Bettys (in this politically correct world) in a balanced, yet irreverent, form.
