Jack,

I saw it too.

I have to admit, the focus of the magazines is to increase circulation (so
ad rates can be justified and increased and therefor profits) and have a
sell ads.

I believe the technical articles are the result of ads or press releases by
advertisers.  I also suspect that the technical articles are proof read by
the manufacturers them selves.

|Has anyone else caught the latest bonehead mistake in the July "Classic
|Trucks"? On page 91/92 there is a nice article and photo spread of Inliner
|Bobby Gaw's '54 GMC. But the author loses all crediblity when the refers to
|the engine as a V6! Don't these clowns even look at the photos they use for
|these articles?!
|
|Kind of makes you wonder about the accuracy of their tech articles.
