Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General Car And Driver back issues

Hey all,

A fellow CEGer lent me 4 of his original Car and Driver issues that feature the SVT. One of them (a 97 issue) was really neat - it was an article that featured the development of the proposed SVT model that was still not confirmed for production. The article followed a couple of days of putting a customized 96 Contour SE through its paces. The SE even had the E0 wheels on it that were reportedly made by Ronal.

Anybody seen this? Anybody ever done a group buy for back issues? The above article and the other 3 that I have are awesome and warrant me paying the $8.95 per back isue to get copies of my own.

Call em and give them an idea, let them sell special back issues to sites like these. A combination of Ford advertisers and a cumilation of all the Ford articales. say a special SVT issue or even break it down further and go with a contour issue. You get the idea, tell them to start with yours (contour, svt , ford) then they can move on to VW, Honda etc.

So...what were the date(s) on those issues? I'm half contemplating ordering them myself.

Article is called "Night of the Iguana, Sort of".
