I’ve collected the first three years or so (with a few exceptions) of one of the first non-V8-based mass-enthusiast magazines of the contemporary period of modified-car culture in Australia, Fast Fours and Rotaries. Here is one of the more interesting magazine covers:
Rotary powered cars were understood by the largely anglo-Australian modified-car enthusiast circles as not ‘proper’ modified cars and owned by ‘wogs’, ie non-anglos.
Also strange to see the lack of RX-3 on the cover. And little tiny 15″ wheels when at least 17s are now the “standard”.
how far we have come, it is interesting to see the change in culture however its nice to see “old school” rotors not over the top in the old mags and im anglo-saxon lol
