Vale Australian Street Rodder magazine

Yes, I had to read it a few times too.
It seems ASR has gone the way of so much we all love in our hobby/sport.
In the current issue (issue 398, August 2023) there is a note which reads:
"It is with great sadness that I share with you that issue 400 of
Australian Street Rodder will be the last issue we publish.
This was a very difficult decision to make but it is the best one
for me, moving forward.
[There is some subscription related words here] Then:
"I thank you for your support over the years and wish you all the best
in the future
Till next time.stay well stay safe."
Signed Mary O'Toole."
I, for one will sadly miss my monthly Hot Rod fix.
It's become an institution for me. When it arrives in the post
i grab a cuppa, and head straight for Ted Robinette's
Technical Workshop, then back to the start with "Graffiti, then the drag news,
then Kustoms of Australia, Then skip to the back for Larry's Leftovers, then Hugh Nally's shortcuts.
Then I start reading about who is building what, and perve at the finished projects.
All gone...
Yes, I know there's lot of stuff online but I enjoy reading the stuff in a magazine. Doesn't matter where I am
I can read the magazine. No need for internet service, carrying my laptop around, on holidays etc.
