TORQUEBACK ONLINE
All Chrysler Day 2010 Special
OK, so for those of you who don't know, Torqueback is the official magazine of the Chrysler Car Club of South Australia, our club newsletter.
Torqueback has a spotlight on a particular Chrysler theme, usually a model or event, with regular features being reports from our committee, repro magazine extracts, the cartoon strip Full Boar, and a member profile - typically an owner of the car in the spotlight.
We have plans for upcoming issues to cover the Charger, and the (relatively unknown) history of the three different kinds of latey hardtop, and Torqueback editor Adriana - who is currently cruising America in an old Plymouth and visted Carlisle - will be writng about her trip and the Mopar scene in the US.
CURRENT ISSUE OUT NOW
The March/May 2010 edition of Torqueback is now out (sorry about the delay but it's been well worth the wait). The now annual All Chrysler Day special - weighing in at an extra 32 pages - is now becoming a highly anticipated tradition and this issue certainly lives up to last year's.
This edition, of course, like the show, spotlights the 40th anniversary of the VG and the Aussie Hemi, chock full of eye candy from both the show on the Sunday and the Mopar MegaCruise on the Saturday night, with a history of the model and the motor. There's also an article about the rare "Stirling Special" model, some retro adverts, a very unusual VJ wagon of historical importance, we introduce you to Darren Koziol's VJ 'zombie hunter' hardtop, and Full Boar takes us to the Pomona Swap Meet, all wrapped around a centrespread of a rare VG Mexicana.
A web version of our quarterly mag will now be available either from here at the club website or at the Hemi 6 Pack forum, a short time after every new issue comes out in print and is circulated to our subscribing membership.
Now this is (quite deliberately) only in web resolution, so it will not print out as clearly as the original magazine does.
However, if you'd like to enjoy a glossy hardcopy just as our members do, all you'd have to do would be to join our club and as part of your membership you'll be mailed out a magazine every quarter.
Go to our Membership page of our website for details. Membership is only $20 per year and no, you don't have to be in SA to be a member. More the merrier.
So with each edition, simply click on a thumbnail below which will link to the MediaFire website where you'll be able to download that particular back issue of Torqueback.
