Australian Hot Rod + Pin-Up Magazines…

The other day I ordered a couple of Australian (yes, Australian) hot rod, pin-up, low-brow art magazines and they arrived today. I was a bit suspicious initially - thinking it was just “printed in Australia and heavily featuring American content”. But it seems legit. Aussie models, Aussie cars, adverts, gig scene, the lot (well, maybe not the whole lot, but predominantly).

John’s Hot Rod Show - Rain, rain and more rain…

Yes, we went to the Hot Rod show on the weekend…

No, I didn’t take any photos…

Yes, the rockabilly bands were fantastic…

No, there weren’t over 2,500 cars there that day…

Yes, we got saturated…

No, it wasn’t as packed with people as I had imagined…

Yes, I can’t wait for next year’s event so that I CAN take photos…

On a better note, my Christmas cards have been selling well!
