David, I started buying Motor cycle mechanics circa 1965, then on to Car Mechanics, when old cars were referred to as bangers, to then move on to the first editions of the "Classic" press when the bangers were escalated to such high status almost overnight..(-: Bought those mage religiously till the interweb arrived, and only over the last year so I binned the majority of them, I used them as reference material over many a year, and spent many an hour trying to find specific articles I remembered having read... A great way to pass time, though the interweb access to ALL kinda undermined the viability of the collection.... I now have freed up loads of cupboard and shelve space to store toilet rolls... (-:
