Thanks, Steve, wait until you see the following issue. It kills the initial redesign issue. I'm open to all, so let me know.

Thanks, bud, H

Will I have to leave this sprawling metropolis that is Detroit, Michigan with it's garbage strewn highways, pot-holed roads, and frigid temperatures 8 months out of the year?

I don't know....that might be pretty hard to do. :D

Cool deal, that's the best way to do it.. in steps. Trying to do it all at once is almost pointless since you will end up tweeking and changing stuff as you go..

Very cool.

Is this a full or part time type deal?


Like Trapin asked...does it require moving to, or living near the magazine headquarters?


What kind of experience, training, education is desireable for this kind of work?


Are you able to give salary ranges?

I'm sure Henry won't mind me answering this..

Im almost positive it's a full time gig..

You will need to move to CA.. This is a staff position and not a freelancing thing. The cool part is that you can eventually advance to editor, publisher or even a god-like position like Frieberger has.. lol

You need to know about cars. This is CHP so they are heavy on tech and concentrate on later 60's and early 70's Chevy musclecars. Im sure they would want knowledge of small block, big block, LSx and such GM engines.

I don't think a degree is all that important, but you will need to be able to formulate coherent thoughts and string together words in new and interesting ways. You also need to understand the importance of deadlines :)

My spelling is sorta weak, but I know how to use spell checker. lol..

It's a fun career, but it is work and has some of the same stress as in any other job. Then again you get to play with cars a lot and hang out with other gearheads.

I'm sure Henry can chime in if I am off on this at all....

How about soemone who can put a humorous slant on anything, AND can spell? College educated, Big as a dumptruck and will supply my own Crisco to help slide into smaller Hot Rods!! :D

Just a quick update. It is a full time position in LA and Steve did hit most of the questionable areas. So far I've had a number of impressive resumes come in and we will be in touch shortly.

Thanks to all those who have responded! :thumbsup:
