The MuscleCar Place Newsletter July 16, 2009

Muscle car summer continues!
 
In this week's edition of The MuscleCar Place Newsletter we discuss some interesting topics: car shows, auctions, and bankruptcy....oh my!
 
Also, we'll review our weekly podcast show - and this week's show features the Editor of Hot Rod Magazine himself - Rob Kinnan.
 
Finally, do take a peek through our latest listings.  It's a tough job to look a beautiful cars, I know...but someone has to do it.  More and more great muscle cars keep showing up each day!
 
 
Sincerely,
