Hot Rod and the AMC six



Tom J. Said:

... mentioned in HOT ROD mag, since D-C is dropping
the 4.x I6. They
were nice to AMC in the little side bar.

I hadn't looked at HOT ROD for probably close to a
decade; last I
recall, it was "A: Ford B: Chevy C: None of the above"
and pretty much
'construction' sales articles. Still a lot of both,
but a lot more
readers-rides and (gasp) even inline motors mentioned.

Well. IMHO an editor does make a difference.  I think
much of the change in Hot Rod has been due to David
Frieburger (sp?).  He just likes cars.  Fast cars.  I
think at last count he had 18.  Hot Rod, for instance,
hadn't really covered land speed racing in many years.
 Last August Frieburger was at Bonneville, racing (I
think.) a Monte Carlo with a turbocharged engine on
the long track.
