MONSTA

 
Jamil's butt-kicking MONSTA is featured in the July issue of SM. Start with a classy VR Senator, fit an 800hp, V7-blown 363ci Holden stroker and jam a set of 20x15in Showwheels out the back. Perfect! Photo: Guy Bowden

Doctor Death

We're digging deep in our archives for our 30th Anniversary celebrations - in fact, our August issue will have a special 100-page mag strapped to the back full of Street Machine history. One of our favourite finds has been Peter Abela's 'Doctor Death' Landau. If anyone is in touch with Peter these days, we'd love to have a chat!

 

The last-ever AHRR?

We reckon this the last issue of Australian Hot Rodding Review before it turned into Van Wheels, but we're not 100% sure. Has anyone got an issue dated later than this 'un?
