Editorial Synopsis:
Launched in March 1970, when hot rodding and customising as we know it today barely existed in the UK, the first issue of Custom Car featured beach buggies, a Pontiac GTO-engined Vauxhall Viva, a road test on the 3000GT Capri (the UK's version of a pony car?) and an article on the recently formed Jago Automotive, purveyors of fine Model T kits. There was no other magazine like Custom Car!
Fast-forward 36 years and Custom Car is still different from the rest. The UK's only lifestyle magazine for the hot rod, custom and drag racing enthusiast, Custom Car combines the best event reports and previews, news, project cars, exclusive features and contributions from the UK, USA and Europe. With valuable technical advice and a very active classified section, Custom Car is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the scene. |
