jrbartlett Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Is Car Collector Magazine still in business? I could not bring their website up, but don't know whether that is a temporary glitch or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 The FBI seized it along with all of the other assets of Tim Durham. There are no current plans to revive it, even if it was possible. Car Collector, nor those responsible for producing it, was not involved in Durham's financial activities. He was the owner, and the magazine went down with the ship.

Paul Dobbin Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 To bad about Collector Car Magazine, but our own Antique Automobile Magazine from AACA is so improved, nobody will miss Collector Car.Another first class one is Classic Car, a Hemming's publication, which I recommend to others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncgirl05 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I LOVED this magazine! I thought my subscription ran out because I quit receiving the magazine, but I get so many each month it took me a while to realize it. I actually was just trying to find their website because I wanted to renew my subscription and saw what the OP was talking about. Gosh - truly - what a shame. It was, bar none, the best.

ncgirl05 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Let's just say I understand why folks have restoration projects that last 20 years No chance of buying back issue of CCM either, eh? I'm still mourning the newly-discovered loss and am now gathering up all the issues I have so I can read them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ken bogren Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 This is where it might not pay to take the longest subscription to get the best rate.Apparently my subscription was set to run until late 2012.Sad to see a neat magazine go away.

Dynaflash8 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Is/was there a Car Collector Magazine and also a Collector Car Magazine? I just stopped at the book store and leafed through Collector Car Magazin today. Lead story was on the '37 Graham, and there was a great old Buick dealership article at the back.Signed, "Confused" Edited February 20, 2012 by Dynaflash8 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lunaperro Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I have one issue of November 2007, and my dad may have had some others, but I don't have access at the moment. I can ask my sister to see if he had any of these. He subscribed to tons of magazines, and we saved them because we didn't know what else to do with all of them.

Guest myold88 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 My '51 Olds 88 was featured in the Dec '98 issue of Car Collector Magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
60FlatTop Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I think I remember that car. I always liked that style Olds so it must have stuck. I liked that magazine as well. I remember it having a good mix of feature cars and tech. The '80's and '90's were a good time for automotive media. Drama and exploitation were at a minimum back then. There was a sense of true hobbyist in the writings. Many had a style that made you think they had a day job. Back to Oldsmoblies, I bought a '56 Holiday 88 with a Super 88 engine back in those days. I guy came by the garage while I was working on it and exclaimed "Does she know how fast these are!" It must be nice to get your foot into that one.
