5 out of 5 stars The perfect redneck magazine   August 23, 2005
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

What's better than a 700hp primered car doing a burnout? Not much. That's what the rednecks that write for Car Craft belive, and it shows. For example, someone sent in a pic of their beater doing a burnout. CC published it with the caption "Is that the battery strapped to the windshield?! That is awesome!" This mag is a fun, informational read.
It mostly deals with Muscle cars from the '60s and '70s, but will feature almost anything American and high powered from early '50s to late '70s. They stay away from EFI muscle, as that's left to other mags. Also, imports aren't covered, as rice is done to death by 200 other mags.
Subjects cover everything from "How much nitrous will this junkyard engine take?" (300 shot), to bracket racing your homebuilt car, to making your own flamed paint job. I don't own a car with a carburator, but I still pick this up a few times a year for the half ton of useful info inside.



5 out of 5 stars Hands down, the best mag on the planet   May 7, 2004

If you want down to earth, fun, understandable, most of the time affordable outlook on the car crafting industry, this is the mag for you. Great writers, great articles, great magazine...And it's dirt cheap. Yippee!!!


5 out of 5 stars One of the best musclecar magazines   June 30, 2002
  6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I feel a bit ackword putting 5 stars for any item without some explaination, so here it is. If you are interested in building engines with high cost-to-performance ratio as well as good reliability, this is the magazine for you. The magazine doesn't hold bias to any (american) company either making it good for any enthusiast. In addition, the straight scoop section has great information on the automotive world in both the corporate and enthusiast venues. And if you looking for a little comedy, the magazine offers that too. Carcraft is one of the best all around magazines for anyone who owns classic or modern american muscle. However, if you own an import car, don't look for much information or sympathy in these pages. Ofcourse, that isn't the subject of this magazine anyway and there are plenty of good import magazines available.


4 out of 5 stars Car Craft   December 13, 2001

This is a good magazine for you if you want to take a 1960s American car and rebuild it (not restore it). They discuss finding appropriate parts in your local junk yards to improve your car and national sources for items to improve the original vehicles. Examples of this are fuel injected heads for older GM 350s and rear disk brake systems for OEM axels which had stock drum brakes.

The editorial style is flippant, but they publish useful articles each issue. The answers to technical questions are particularly good.

A good buy for (...) 12 issues.
