Paul Martin
Publisher/Photographer
Having combined my passion of hot rods and nostagia drag racing with my love of shooting on both 35mm film cameras and hot rod hybrids of digital cameras and vintage lenses, the obvious final step was to put them in a old fashioned good quality printed magazine. The other was to collaborate with some very talented, car obsessed individuals.
