About the SHOWCASE

Editor and publisher John Knight reveals how Hot Rod Showcase came to be...

I got back into hot rodding in 2005 after a 15-year absence and was amazed at the quality and quantity of rods at runs like Billing and Old Warden, compared to the last time I was there. It struck me that there are so many quality cars around in the UK that most will never get the recognition they deserve in traditional magazines because of limited space.

So we set out to create a publication which mirrors the maturity and diversity in the hot rod movement here in the UK.

The result is the Hot Rod Showcase. And it is a book - with its own pukka ISBN number - rather than a magazine. And as such it contains no letters page (you can submit comments through our web site), no tech articles (others do that much better than we could), no major event reports, no calendar of events and, most significantly, no advertising.

Just rods. And lots of 'em!

All the best,

John Knight
Editor
