I'm a racecar fabricator in Ohio and have just joined the forum. I'm interested in finding Pro-Touring print material. Could anyone recommend a magazine subscription that would regularly features Pro-Touring information?
Thanks, Mike

Mike,
Welcome to the site!
That's a tough one... A few magazines on the newstands (e.g. Popular Hot Rodding and Chevy High Performance...and Camaro Performers magazine -for the Camaro audience) run a lot of Pro-Touring vehicles. During some periods of time, these magazines focused on the Pro-Touring scene...enough that the hot rod and drag racing enthusiasts complained. This brought the magazines back to including all types of build styles. Car Craft and Hot Rod magazines historically/typically steer more towards the street machine crowd because that market is much larger than the Pro-Touring segment, even though the PT segment has steadily increased over the last 10 years.
Unfortunately there's no single magazine I can think of that will be strictly focused on PT alone. Pro-Touring.com is a good source of most of what you're looking for...it's just not printed material you can take private places to read. ;)
If you're looking for fabrication inspiration, Detroit Speed has a vast "Projects" area with TONS of P-T metal fabrication porn to drool over for hours on end. http://detroitspeed.com/Projects/projects.html

popular hot rodding is probably the best mag out there !
