Description

Modern Motor December 68 MOTOR magazine was originally published as Modern Motor from its inaugural issue on 9 May 1954 by the late Colin Ryrie as MD of Modern Magazines and Jules Feldman OAM as editor. The name derived from the publishing house that produced it, Modern Magazines. Colloquially, the title was abbreviated to Motor, and subsequently the word 'Modern' was dropped from the title to become simply “MOTOR” in 1992. The magazine is headquartered in Melbourne. Dylan Campbell was the editor of MOTOR between 2013 and 2020. After switching to Wheels in September 2020, Campbell was succeeded as editor at MOTOR by Andy Enright. MOTOR focuses on prestige and high-performance vehicles and covers every aspect of performance-car culture. For sale is a December 1968 edition of Modern Motor featuring the new Ford Colt and the Holden Torana 4 Door for 1968 along with an interesting article on the Ferrari 365 GT 2+2. The condition I would describe as 9/10, excellent condition for its age of 55 years. This magazine has some excellent articles for the Ford, Holden, Volvo, Ferrari and Mini Moke enthusiasts making it a worthwhile addition to your collection of motoring memorabilia.
