Is it Wheels or Motor? Or is it something else? Eamon has collected a lot of both of those.

My Dad had every copy of Wheels and Motor since they came out in 1954 (I think), but he lost the lot in a fire!

Does Google help?

Yeah true, but they might not have the same staff from 8-9 years ago

My collection is huge. I do recall Dicks EB or ED on the cover of one. Im pretty sure it was WHEELS. Im due for a re-file (ie: to put back into order of year and month) so if i find it i will let you know. This may take some time as there is currently around 4000 mags in my collection. That dosent include my immaculate collection of CRUZIN.

They were all catagorised but over time they tend to get messed up. They are all stored in plastic containers in my wardrobe and under bed. Im pretty sure Wheels is still in production.
