Muscle Car Power Magazine-The Rosie issue

[Red Rocker]

Hello everyone. I just joined. I am the Editor at Muscle Car Power magazine and I am very interested in shooting some of the awesome iron featured here. I don't know if any of you have seen the magazine but it is currently on stands and has Rosie-the 66 Mustang from Hot Rods Restos in Canada on the April 2009 cover. The magazine is designed all around the heavily modified G-machine style catering to the customer who wants to check out cars that do everything well and tech that drives toward that effort. I'd love to hear comments if you have seen the mag. The March 2009 issue has a 64 Chevelle convertible on the cover built by Hill's Hot Rods in Texas. It has air ride, big brakes, LS1, six speed, 19's and 20's. I look forward to meeting many cool folks on Lateral G

Welcome to the site.

I can't say that I've seen that magazine, but I'm very interested in checking it out.

[ironworks]

It is a pretty slick magazine.

Welcome Travis

[awr68]

Welcome! Sounds like a cool book!

[Red Rocker]

Cool. I took it over about 3 months ago and have bee transforming from a restored Muscle car book to a G-machine haven. These in my opinion are the cars people want to read about-cars that handle, stop, steer, turn bitchin and run on bad ass late model power. You simply can beat all the modern style built into a classic package. I am also touching one some late model cars as well.

Travis

[XcYZ]

Does your magazine have a website to check out?

[Red Rocker]

Thanks. Hopefully some day I can build a 64 or 65 Chevelle. Right now i am building a 56 ford F-100 pickup as I also run Street Trucks Magazine full time. my truck is on air with 20-inch Bonspeed wheels, SSBC brakes, Ford 9-inch, Ford Racing SBF Boss 302, overdrive trans, fully shaved, big window. I am running Vintage A/C, Flaming River column, No Limit IFS, No Limit fat bar 4-link. I am looking forward to finishing that and jumping into a Chevelle in a few years.

[Musclerodz]

Was it you that called me a month or so back looking to shoot some of our customer cars? I remember someone called looking for modified cars to shoot in my area.

[Red Rocker]

Possibly. I call a lot of people with projects and finished cars. Shoot me an e-mail with what you've [email protected]

[class67]

I've never even heard of this magazine, where might I find a copy?

[jeff hanson]

Great mag! But ofcourse I'm gonna say that, you did a full feature on my car in it a couple months ago!:lol: Welcome aboard!

[Red Rocker]

Jeff- Your Camaro is awesome. Thanks for the support.

Travis

[syborg tt]

Welcome to the Board Travis.

I just read the magazine - cover to cover tonight.

I agree with your article "Performance Predictions" I think were going to see a big change in the cars that are being built.

As for 3rd gen Camaros - you may want to look at the one Nelson Racing & Bent Customs are building. It's over the top ( not a budget build ) but it is out of the norm since it's a 3rd gen Camaro. I think it's one of the baddest cars 3rd gen being build right now.

http://www.lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=5519


Of course that is going to change a little when Troy starts building the 3rd gen in his shop.

Once again welcome to the board and welcome fellow truck owners and tell Jason Marty said hi.

[CptKlutz]

For us Euro guys: is the mag carried by any of the "subscription brokers" handling international subscriptions? Sounds like I'm in your target audience LOL!

Building a Mustang that could be of interest? http://www.lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=18274&highlight=GT2

[TonyG]

I stole this image from Ebay so everyone has an idea of what the mag looks like.. I have never seen it before but will be looking for it now.

OMG :faint: I would by any magazine with feature of this cuda . Perfect!!!

[Red Rocker]

Magazine has changed a lot since that posted cover. It is now full G-machine with only one restored car at most per issue. The restored cars don't drive the aftermarket, are not exciting to look at, will not hang a corner, and in my view are not that fun to drive except in a straight line. G-machines, Gmachines. G-machines!!!!!

Welcome to the site. Tons of G-machines here to look at. I think a few of our local places carry your magazine. I would love to get a subscription to a magazine that does strictly gmachines. Glad you got to take a look at our cars at Jason's shop. Lot's to look at there.

Hi Guys!

Travis pointed me over to this site.

I work with Travis on MCP, however not of the editorial side.

Our Subscriptions should start to become available in the June 09
issue, keep your eyes peeled.

This publication has gone through some great changes and has
some great cars, much like Lateral-G.

What about real street fighters, with proven performances??

[Red Rocker]

Real Street Fighters are welcome in MCP. I want a good combination of cars to fill the book and stuff that people drive daily and pound on consistently is also part of the program.

Hi Guys!

Hey Steve ! Nice to see you again ! How is my old office doing there ?

Most likely it's empty.. if ya know what I'm saying.. lol

I'm sure our place is much like yours.. snappin' photos.. swirling up words into stories.. trying to hit deadline.

Welcome to the site, you're welcome to everything except the Camaros.. :lol:

[the camtender]

You know someone?? ;)

I might, but not 100% sure what you guys consider as "street fighter", are 4 fat tires a prerequisite :question:

Did I hear a 3rd Gen Camaro build?...I'm hooked. I had seen MuscleCar Power before, but it was mostly restored cars. Now that I hear it's turned toward all g-machines, I will have to get the mag and check it out. Sounds like nothing but good things...

[T_Raven]

Where do I find this magazine?

[89 RS]

I've found the magazine at the grocery stores. Grabbed the April edition this morning.

[Red Rocker]

Thanks for all the support guys. I hope the magazine finds its way to many of your coffee tables and relaxation spots.

Travis

[mdprovee]

Hey Travis,

I heard you had taken some pictures of my car at Jason's shop Gearhead Garage, the Grey and Burgandy Camaro. Hope you liked it and Welcome...

[Vegas69]

Sounds like my kind of magazine. I'd be interested in a subscription as well.

[Kendall Burleson]

I have seen the Magazine a lot here the last couple of month.cool mag.;) ;) ;)

I missed this thread the first time around, welcome! :)

[MaxHarvard]

Does this mag still exist?

From this
http://www.apg-media.com/content/view/26/47/

It doesn't look like it's still around... ? :question:

[89 RS]

I've seen a recent issue in the grocery store. I think there was article on the new Mustang that Muscle Car TV and Foose did together for a contest on Spike TV.

[Muscle Car PWR]

Magazine is still very much in business. I took charge of it just over a year ago and have transformed it from a heavy resto magazine to a full g-machine/Pro Touring book. Just finished issue number 7 under my leadership and Feb. 2010 issue hits stands Dec. 1st. Next issue has a '69 Camaro with an LS2, big brakes, budnik's etc. on the cover. Lots of good tech, cool cars, some event coverage. I am a Goodguys event fanatic and am planning to cover more and more Autocross next season.

I have been in the truck circle for the past 17 years and have built and owned several custom show trucks. I just finished a 1995 Chevy C-1500 standard cab on Air Ride Tech Susp., 20-inch bonspeed wheels, Baer brakes, billet adjustable shocks, GMPP 383 crate motor, big fat A.R.T. sway bar up front, retro muscle car paint scheme with flat finished hood and SS badges and stripes, black vinyl interior with houndstooth inserts.

I am also the Editor of Street Trucks Magazine and run both Muscle Car Power and Street Trucks simultaneously. My name is Travis Noack and if you have questions on the magazine e-mail me at [email protected]. Hope you all are enjoying the book.

Thanks

[XcYZ]

Welcome, Travis. Glad to have you on board.
