ON THE COVER: It's back! It's spreading from the midwest toward both coasts. It's the fifties. It's nostalgia. It's a revival in the trends of that golden era when a custom automobile was by necessity a lead creation by metal craftsmen. Yes, the cruise nights are back and with them come the same type of vehicle many of us only dreamed of in our youth. For the 40 + age group it's spring again. Doug Auer has captured the mood on film at a local drive-in and explores the phenomenon in depth in his treatise on "Bringing Back an Era".
