Wow! Really?? I am trying to make a scrapbook. My boyfriend lost all of his magazines in a move cross country and I am desperately trying to gather them together so he can hold on to those memories. His last name was Bond. He was an amateur but from what I hear he was pretty good. I would be willing to purchase some, granted that there were articles about him or centerfolds about him. I am just not exact about which issues. Can anyone help????
Please email me at onelilcolombian@hotmail.com or send me a private message if you are seriously willing to help! Thanks everyone!!!

If you knew which issues, I'm sure people could get color copies as opposed sell off their prized magazines or cut their prized magazines up. With more specific info, we could help you alot better.

Fabulous!!!! I will get working on that then! Thank you so much for the information! It is very much appreciated!!!

Just about everyone on here is pretty helpful. The old magazines can cost alot of money. I've seen certain issues sell for over $50 a piece, but that was for pretty much brand new condition original magazines. That's why I suggested if you knew which magazines, that most people would rather try to get you copies of articles than sell or cut up their magazines. Color copies of pages aren't that expensive and alot of people have pretty fancy scanners/copiers so it's not even that big of a deal. And you might be trying to surprise your boyfriend with this, but he would be very welcome to be a member on here and share some of his stories or pictures or anything like that. There are a couple members on here who were nationally known racers in their day, as well as engine builders, and frame makers and others who were involved in the atc industry way back when. Most of them are real charachters with lots of interesting stories and pics and such. We even have a nationally known lady racer on here as well, so there is quite a diverse group of people, not leaving out the 3 wheeled enthusiasts either.

That's really awesome information! Well, after I finish this project and it becomes known to him, I will definitely show him all of my efforts on how I (hopefully) put this scrapbook together! I'm sure he would enjoy sharing his stories! I know I have enjoyed hearing them myself. :) I will have to find out wt ihich issues now but that is going to be a little more tricky! ;) But where there is a will, there is a way! Thank you again so much for everything so far! Happy 3 wheelin!!!!! :)
