Another great article, on the beloved old 6 pack mopars , seems like only yesterday!
 
I thought it might take an hour or more to find, but it was right on top of the stack! I originally scanned it in at 600 dpi, but reduced it to 200 dpi when I cropped it. I left extra on the facing pages if you want to splice the pages together. Also, it looks like I'll have to post them 1 or 2 at a time due to the large size of the files.

Looks like I have to reduce resolution to 160 dpi to get even 1 to load. Page 1:

Between finding the magazine, scanning in the pages, editing them in Photoshop (3 times), and uploading them using my phone for internet service, I easily spent that hour+. Lastly, page 5:

Thank you for taking the time to prepare and share with us :thankyou:
 
You're welcome. It's nice to contribute occasionally. I usually just lurk & drool.
 
The fact that you still have that magazine after 50 years is amazing. And then to actually find it..
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Yes thanks for you efforts, wished I would have kept my mags !
