Back Issues of Muscle Machines Magazine...

I had dozens of old Muscle Machine magazines laying around and was getting ready to throw them out..
But I started flipping through them and my 8 year old said he wished there was a way to save some of the cool cars in there..

Well, that sparked a little arts and crafts project for he and I to do.. He went through and ripped out pages of his favorite cars,
then I cut out each one and we placed them face down in a WalMart frame adding a bit of tape to the back as we went to keep
them in place.. When we flipped it over to see how it looked his face said it all.. He was beaming and couldn't wait to get it
on the wall of his bedroom..

Here's the poster we did for him:

As we were going through the issues, I noticed a lot of Torino / Cyclone stuff in there.. (My favorite Musclecars.. I've had 6 of them)
A quick trip to WalMart for another frame and later last night I had a new poster for my home office :mrgreen:

I know it's kinda 'grade school' art, but the end result looks pretty cool and it was time well spent with Cooper~

Still cool though. I had a whole wall of my bedroom covered with centerfolds from Hot Rod
magazines when I was a kid.

Nice posters - I did exactly the same thing as a kid. I still have a big frame laying around somewhere like that. I probably destroyed hundreds of now valuable magazines LOL.
