Editorial Profile: In the late 1990s, this magazine staked out the do-it-yourself segment of the hot rodding hobby and defended it with a homebuilt sledgehammer. For low-tech, low-budget, real-world car tech, there is no better source than Car Craft. Feature cars are realistic cars built by real people and racing pieces focus on grassroots racing. Prior to the current editorial direction, these guys have chased many fads. They were defenders of the pro street scene since its beginnings, and before that they were very much oriented toward racing. They also went through a loud-graphics phase. So, going over the total history of Car Craft, there's likely to be an article on just about anything.
