Default HOT ROD Febuary 2009 stupidity

Did anyone see the new HR magazine? The editor letter on page 10 by Rob Kinnan called the STARTING LINE has the headline "The Yenko Lives"...He goes on about how he was only 2 years old when the Yenko's came out, and how he has never had the pleasure to ride in one yadda yadda yadda..He is clammering over the new 10' Camaro's and has a plea for Don Yenko to build new Yenko's. "Yo Don, it's time to do it again." is his battle cry. I guess he didn't get the memo that Don passed away in 1987. Crack journalism for sure. But hey, why let the facts get in the way....BKH

I dropped Hot Rod magazine in the late 80s. Don't see any good reason to subscribe now either.

I get the magazine because my kids always sell them for school projects. Sooo, Hot Rod was the one I picked this time. Doing no research and getting paid for it seem to be the way things are done nowadays. He also loves the Yenko decals and the stiching on the headrests, "its 1968 again, only better". Really, I love the sYc headrests and YENKO/SC graphics on the 68 Yenko's too...Ooops, thats 1969, but hey, its in print, I guess we are all wrong, after all it's in a magazine right?..BKH

Not that big a fan of Hot Rod; I get Car Craft and Hemmings Muscle Cars :two thumbs up:

The only thing is that I wish Hemmings Muscle would increase their auction coverage besides just 2 - 3 pages.
