Cool! Thanks Ziggy!

Did she mention any stores in the area for the benefit of anyone else that's looking to buy an issue in the future?

Where can a guy go in the London area to pick up the latest issue of 'Old Autos' without having a subscription? I've tried many gas stations and variety stores from here to Ipperwash. Even Chapters didn't carry it!

I just called Old Autos and spoke with Cathy. She said to call her at 1 800 461 3457 and she will send you a copy or two!

 We used to buy them here at our local convenience store, and as far as I know you still can. But then again this is Newcastle and the world revolves around us!!

 I used to get mine at a variety store on the corner of Wellington and Exeter in London. Did find them at a few others. It is to my understanding that there is only a few selected places that sell them at now. If my memory is correct, something about them not being too successful with the cash sales (left over copies) and the cost of having somebody run them around to the different stores was getting to be too costly.

A subscription is the answer! I'll take care of that tomorrow at the swap meet.

Thanks Ziggy for that list, and to back me up with proof. If you look at that list there's 25 places listed and Newcastle is number 13, thus proving once again that we are the center of the Universe and everything revolves around us!!

You can join by going to www.oldautos.ca and pay via paypal.
Or call 1-800-461-3457 but be prepaired to re-dial, I think they may only have one line so it's busy all the time.
I renewed my subscription yesterday for another 2 years.

Old Autos is one of the most forwarded publications in North America. My experience is, from what I've read, common!
After I read it my father-in-law reads it, his buddy reads it, who passes it off to his brother, who gives it to his friend, who leaves it on the coffee table at the trucking company he works for....who knows how far it goes from there?
