Default Street Rodder magazine index ???

Does anyone know if there’s an online index of sorts for Street Rodder magazine ? I’m looking for a certain article I remember reading 10 or 15 years ago. Thank you. ~ John Buchtenkirch

Use a description of the article in your search rather than the magazine name.

Never found an index. The SR articles I've sought and found online are/were all on the hotrod website now. I searched using "Street Rodder" with some details (especially with names) from the desired article and have found most of them.

I subscribed to SR for 10-15 years until I got tired of articles that were nothing more than product placement by their advertisers. If I recall correctly, they had one issue a year with an article index.

I couldn't even give them away so they went to recycle.

Default What I did and why.

THANKS for the additional search ideas which did turn up some new information on early hemi engines but not the Street Rodder article I remembered reading. What I finally did after realizing the Street Rodder index was a fantasy was to search “street rodder” +”early hemi” on eBay. That search made me realize there were at least 7 articles covering early hemi engines in 1996 so I found someone selling the full 96 year for $20 and clicked the BUY button. There should be some good information within, regardless…….. I’ve pissed $$$ away on worst stuff.

The WHY. Some of you know I built a BBC powered Bantam coupe after coming home from Vietnam. I sold it in less than 2 years to finance going into the collision business. Then maybe 25 years ago I located and purchased another Bantam coupe body. For years I’ve been telling people if I ever built the second coupe it was going to be powered by an early hemi because that’s the engine most old racers used when drag racing them. So just last week I purchased someone’s 392 engine project. Who knows if my health will hold out long enough for me to ever get to it but it’s the reason for my sudden interest in early hemi information . ~ John Buchtenkirch

Very cool. You will do a build thread, right?
