Has anyone heard from Randy Bolig ?

[Kern Dog]

Randy was the Editor of Mopar Muscle magazine for many years. I recall hearing from him after the shake-up a few years back.
I have almost every issue of Mopar Muscle and Mopar Action dating back to 1999. Mopar Muscle sure has SHRUNK over the years! I have several older issues with 130 pages. The most recent was 78 or 80. This is pathetic. I doubt Randy had much to do with the amount of pages they put out back then but I still think the magazine was better with him at the wheel.

Yeah, the magazine shrunk but the price went up. I really had a hard time deciding to pay that much for 2 year subscription this time. I miss Randy also!

I thought I remember reading in Mopar Collectors Guide that they were looking at hiring him a few months back.

I liked his articles but as the pages declined so did the amount of articles that interested me. Haven't had a magazine in years, to many resto's and not enough mods.

Randy is a free lance writer doing internet work for several companies.He did a write-up on King Engine Bearings not long ago. His last e-mail address is no longer viable .

Dave Young went back to flying corporate jets after he left the magazine. I spoke with him bout a month ago.

I use to message back & forth with him a lot on
MMM forum, I was really active there too,
BUT it got extremely slow, that's about the time
I came over & found FBBO...

Haven't heard much from him since...

Al, thanks for the head's up.

Guys, Thanks for the kind words. You have no idea how much I miss meeting and hanging out with everyone I have met while at Muscle. There have been a lot of changes going on, and I have been working with the folks at Power Automedia. There are a bunch of sites that I contribute to.

At first, I kept up with Muscle to see what happens, but then.... (In the words of a very famous dimwit, "That's all I got to say about that"...)

I'm still around, just not as "visible" as I once was...

By the way, contrary to printed material, I still have the Valiant, although my grandson has claimed it.

By the way, my personal email is [email protected]

I'm still writing, but now it's for an Online website company. Most of what I write is about Chevrolet stuff, but as Paula says, "It pays for my Mopar Hobby."
