On the cover: this month's excuse to spend another weekend in the garage.
This month's cover story · August 2026 · by the Mac Guy
Dream Car
Every garage has a car that started it all. Each month we pull back the shop-rag curtain on another one — with the stats, the trivia, and the "did-you-knows" the club always asks for.
Depends who you ask. To some, it's a car channel. To others, a model train channel. To my wife, it's "that thing you disappear into for three hours and come back smelling like sawdust."
Truth is it's all of it — cars, trains, woodworking, home projects, and whatever else piles up in the garage between now and the next upload. Come for one hobby, stay because apparently I can't stop starting new ones.
