Welcome Show Junkies
We knew it was coming but it sure doesn’t make it any easier going outside in the frigid temperatures. Anyhow lets make the best of our time indoors and organize our summer show plans with some inspiration.
This weeks feature revolves around a familiar aspect, likely how many of us got started in this hobby. Magazines, specifically car rags. Those tantalizing photos, well written articles and alluring advertisements for making your ride squeal, shake and shine.
Did you know many of your favorite magazines are available for free?
And, you can get them delivered to you.
It’s true.
The Minnesota public library systems carry many of the magazines and they can be picked up at your local library.
And, it gets even better.
Many of the magazines are available in digital format. Easily viewed online and downloadable for off line reading.
If you’re looking for inspiration, parts or services catering to classic car enthusiasts you’ll want to check out this weeks feature and video about Libby and eLibrary.
Have a great week and stay warm!
