stroked78 Mar 26th, 08, 9:29 PM hey guys, i have quite the collection of "hotrod" magazines, and dont realy know what to do with them. im keeping them, thats for sure, but i have recently moved out and need a place to keep them all. im just wondering what some of you guys do. if u have em in a book shelf, or have them tucked away in a closit like i did! davis95 Mar 26th, 08, 9:36 PM I have several hundred Super Chevy and Chevrolet High Performance mags and they are mostly in boxes and I also have about a 3 year run of CHP in the top of my Craftsman toolbox in 2 different stacks. The best way I found to preserve magazines that you want to keep indefinitely is to store them individually in 1- gallon Zip-Locks. Nolowrider Mar 26th, 08, 9:42 PM Put them in a Space bag. No serious. They will keep forever.:yes: https://www.spacebag.com/spacebag/901715/ Bisquit037 Mar 27th, 08, 6:17 AM I have boxes full. I even have most of the Summit catalogs. Not sure what I will ever do with the stuff. jpete Mar 27th, 08, 6:39 AM I just had to move all mine from the mid 80's up until today. OUCH! My aching back! :D I hate to do it, but I see recycling in their future...:( Chris R Mar 27th, 08, 8:08 AM I hate to do it, but I see recycling in their future...:( Why not pass them on to the folks that would appreciate them? Kids, family members, nephews/neices, or even send them off to the troops overseas. Im not sure if the troops accept something that old though.

And I don't think I could inflict 1986 paint jobs on folks serving in Iraq. They have enough stress as it is! :D TDW Mar 27th, 08, 7:06 PM I store them in the big clear plastic tubs with the lid. Some stores still have the Rubbermaid ones that are made in the USA. mr 4 speed Mar 27th, 08, 7:09 PM I have about 15 milkcrates full..I have stuff from the 80's back to the mid 60's..the old stuff from the 60's/70's doesn't smell like the mags from the 80's and newer :D My favorite is the old "Hi Performance Cars" mag | ||
