Muscle Car Digital Magazine is a truly global magazine, featuring cars, news and events from all around the world. The muscle car may have had its beginning in the US, but it’s become a global phenomenon.
Muscle Car Digital Magazine focuses on all aspects of the muscle car, including factory original and restored vehicles, period customs, and race cars, with the focus on producing material that is both entertaining and educational.
So strap in and hold on tight, you’re in for a wild ride!
In 2005, Bruce Springsteen released the album Devils & Dust, the number 4 track on which he named Long Time Comin’. That song title perfectly sums up the build phase of the first ever issue of Muscle Car Digital Magazine. We’ve been flogging away on this thing for a good chunk of 2014, and there were times we wondered if we’d ever get finished. But we got her done, we’ve arrived, and we’re excited to be here.
Muscle Car Digital Magazine is a sort of old-meets-new amalgamation. We’re petrol heads, first and foremost, with a passion for the history of the muscle car, the muscle car industry, and all its off-shoots. But while we’ve got one eye on the past, the other is fixed firmly on the future, with this magazine being the end result.
MCDM is a 100% digital magazine. We won’t be reproducing it in print format. We can’t. The entire structure of the mag revolves around the inclusion of video and audio within its pages, to help better support and portray the stories, and truly bring them to life. A picture may tell a thousand words, but a video goes so much further, and we think you’re going to get a real kick out of watching some of the videos we’ve included within these pages. If you can’t be there in person, this is the next best thing. And so, while any historically-focused magazine should always be educational, we want this one to be entertaining as well. Have we got it right? Who knows. We’re pioneers, the world of digital car magazines is still very much in its infancy, and only time will tell.
MCDM was created as an international magazine, with cars and features from around the world. While the muscle car itself originates from the US, the muscle car phenomenon has spread worldwide, and there are some fascinating vehicles scattered all around this planet of ours, and some amazing stories to tell. Furthermore, beyond the US, there are other countries with their own vehicle manufacturing industries who themselves have designed and built some top-notch home-grown muscle cars. And some of these things are tough! And we want to share them with you.
Although we’re not an auto racing magazine, you should expect to find a healthy dose of competition vehicles and race features sprinkled throughout these digital pages. Many of the greatest muscle cars were given life purely for homologation purposes for competition use, be they complete cars, or specific parts. Just think, the Camaro Z28 and ZL1, Mustang Boss 302 and Boss 429, Dodge Daytona, Plymouth Superbird, AAR Cuda, Challenger T/A, Torino Tallageda, Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II, Pontiac Trans-Am, and numerous others, would never exist if it weren’t for motorsport. Hell, even the Pontiac GTO, the car credited by many as that which kicked off the whole muscle car craze, was created in response to General Motors getting out of the racing game. So we want to tip our cap to the great race cars and stories that were the result of factory involvement in auto racing, when the cars you saw on the race track really did relate to the cars you drove yourself. Car makers don’t get into racing for sentimental reasons. They’re there to win, because winning in racing helps shift more stock. But in their efforts to ‘win on Sunday’, they produced some quite spectacular cars, and although their intentions were never to build cars of enormous future significance and desirability, that’s exactly what they did.
