I let my subsription to Classic Motorsports lapse about a year ago. The
new magazine just didn't do it for me like British Car Magazine did.
I picked the July issue of Hemming's Sports & Exotic car magaine. Very
nice!
1. Editorial column on MGB & Beatles.
2. "Lost &Found" article & pics on rusty old 1947-56 Austin A40
Countryman parked somewhere in Utah. (I want it!)
3. Article on "Original, Restored or Project - 10 things you need to
know before buying" - used Jaguar 120s as examples.
4. Article on 1959 AC Ace (before Shelby got hold of body)
5. Column on Triumph Spitfires
6. Article on Retromobile 2006 in Paris
7. <>Article on history of MG EX-E concept car
8. "Buyer's Guide" on 1955 - 61 MGA Roadster
9. Editorial column on editor's buying & restoring TR3 basket case
(daughter's comment - "Wow, what is piece of crap.")
Oh, other miscellaneous articles & pics on lesser cars like Allard, BMW,
Lambroghini, Isetta, etc.
I know there was nothing on Sprites or Midgets, but the magazine did
give me my needed "fix" of classic British cars. I will be looking out
for the August issue, and may be subscribing if the quality of articles
stays good (& quantity of British cars article remains high).
Just thought I would pass this along to any others who miss the old
British Car Magazine.
My $0.02 worth.
