 | Issue #99, December ? Art Deco. Painstaking research that took months to accomplish explored how the art deco movement influenced automotive designs. Mark McCourt?s thorough examination of style resulted in numerous accolades from our readers, telling us that a story such as this has been long overdue. |
 | Issue #93, June ? Custom Cadillacs. Everyone appreciated seeing these two ?un-built? 1930s-period Fleetwood designs come to life, but our readers were split on the validity of their status for today?s concours. As a result we were bombarded with letters and emails, with the general consensus being that a special class for these ?recreations? needs to be created at all concours events. |
 | Issue #89, February ? Class of ?58. With two colorful 1958 Oldsmobiles on the cover, this issue was a huge hit with our readers and newsstand buyers, too. GM?s restyled models for this year were polarizing when new and still are today, so we weren?t surprised to learn just how vocal our readers were about these ornate giants. |
 | Issue #96, September ? Brand Champions. Crunching production numbers was a laborious task that took days on end, but it uncovered just what were the best-selling cars of all time. There were many surprises and our readers really enjoyed finding out which models topped the sales chart. |
 | Issue #95, August ? 1950s Mopars. The combination of Mopars and the 1950s always makes for interesting stories, especially when the main feature car was a purple and white 1956 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer which generated so much positive mail, it was understandably our most popular feature car of the year. |
 | Issue #92, May ? Give-A-Way Cars. Baby boomers remember well the popularity of give-a-way cars back in the prosperous post-war years, so we weren?t surprised to learn just how well-liked this theme story was. Such light-hearted stories about the forgotten side of automotive history, such as this, lends the magazine a fun quotient that our readers found to be highly entertaining. |
 | Issue #91, April ? Top 10 Most Powerful Classics. Horsepower is highly celebrated by all car enthusiasts, but it?s a car?s power-to-weight ratio that?s the true barometer in determining its power rating. David Traver Adolphus ran the numbers to discover the real ?muscle car? champions of each era, and the results surprised everyone. |
 | Issue #94, July ? Deco Diva Town Cars, Wealth on Wheels (and part 2). In this two-part series of the History of Automotive Design, Walt Gosden explored custom-built motorcars for society?s elite. This ever-popular design feature always generates reader mail, but this particular series had the Full Classic enthusiasts asking for more. |
 | Issue #97, October ? Jay Leno?s alternative energy cars. While Jay?s Chrysler Turbine car was the main feature, we also went inside his garage and profiled his steam-powered vehicles. Our environmentally-conscious readers loved this issue, while everyone else simply enjoyed reading about Jay?s diverse car collection and his thoughts on steam power. |
 | Issue #98, November ? 25 Collectible Plymouths That You Must Own. When it comes to collector cars, Plymouths usually get short-changed, so this issue was designed to highlight all the great Plymouth models that everyone should own. We selected the top 25 most collectible Plymouths, and were surprised to learn that 99 percent of our readers agreed with us. |
