Muscle Car Power Magazine-The Rosie issue
 
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.

It is a pretty slick magazine.

Welcome Travis

awr68 02-04-2009 09:01 PM

Welcome! Sounds like a cool book!

Red Rocker 02-04-2009 09:02 PM

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.

XcYZ 02-04-2009 09:06 PM

Does your magazine have a website to check out?

Red Rocker 02-04-2009 09:07 PM

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.

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 02-04-2009 10:20 PM

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

After all, all I want are Camaros and Chevelles :)

Red Rocker 02-05-2009 07:21 AM

Thanks for all the positive comments. I've been working my tail off putting that mag together so its cool to see good reviews. Frank-I'll be in touch soon. Rushforth-Good to hear from you man.
As for subs we are working on that. I look forward to getting some bad ass cars from this site into MCP.

Nvrenuf 02-05-2009 07:57 AM

Welcome! :lateral: is a great place to hang out. I look forward to seeing your publication. Hope I can get ahold of it in my small town. Curious to see what you cover.

V8TV 02-05-2009 10:40 AM

Hey Travis! Sounds like you're doing well. Good to hear. I'll look for the mag!

jeff hanson 02-05-2009 03:12 PM

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 02-05-2009 07:23 PM

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

Travis

syborg tt 02-05-2009 07:47 PM

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.

https://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 02-06-2009 12:34 AM

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? https://lateral-g.net/forums/show...&highlight=GT2

TonyG 02-06-2009 04:56 AM

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 02-06-2009 05:47 PM

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, never seen this magazine but it sure looks interesting.

Welcome aboard Travis, thanks for the build article on the Fairlane, I look forward to shooting the feature. Doug

Red Rocker 02-07-2009 02:11 PM

Doug- Thanks for the welcome comments. The build article on the Failrane was great. I look forward to shooting the car.

As for Rosie it was photographed outside of Vegas on the dry lake bed between Boulder City and Searchlight off of Hwy 95 Rod was in town for Sema

Thanks Jason at Gearhead. I appreciate the opportunity to shoot a few of your cars. I'll be intouch this week on tech sheets. Keep me posted on some of the tech stuff we talked about.

It was good hanging out with you and Jason at the shop. If you need any more info let me know.

I'm excited about working with you on a few projects.

mazspeed 02-14-2009 10:09 AM

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.
