COVER: John Garrard's blown Vette, Bruce Schmidt's immortal '57 Chevy and Tim Weber's ex-Pro Stock Camaro illustrate the wide diversity of the Chevrolet world--as do six pages of Chevys (page 46), a '55-'57 Chevy buyer's guide (page 19), a turbo Vette (page 52) and the latest in factory performance parts (page 66). COVER PHOTOGRAPHY: BOB McCLURG, BRUCE CALDWELL
PAGE 43: HOT ROD returns to Bonneville, and what do we find there but the same car featured in our March 1958 issue ("Roadster Par Excellence"), running the same class (D/Modified Roadster) with the same motor (an injected 303 Olds).
