A couple of months ago we spread the news on Facebook of the birth of the bimonthly magazine Four Wheels Revival. Taking advantage of the fact that number 2 is already in the kiosks, we are going to make a small review of this new publication which, as we understand it, could soon even become monthly.
Four Wheels Revival It is dedicated to classic cars, modified cars, to the History of Motorsports and, also, to high-end vehicles. There is really much more classic than modern, the common denominator of the contents being the charisma or the uniqueness of its themes.
Number 1 tried so interesting and light matters like the fatal story of the 'little brother' of Jackie stewart François Cevert, the legendary Rally Safari, the decadence of Detroit, the Lamborghini Miura or the master customizer George Barris, among others. And also dream events like the 'Burning Man', Held in the Nevada desert (USA) and full of quirky machinery.
I say in an interesting and light way because the magazine is supported by short and well-written texts, heart attack photographs and a fresh and elegant graphic design. It is big but not 'heavy', It can be read almost without feeling thanks to a good paper, an accurate typography and continuous vanishing points for the recreation of the imagination.
It is true that there are times that he spends a bit on tiptoe on topics as interesting as the silver arrows from the fifties but, in general, it is worth each of the 5,95 euros it costs. It is atypical and will contribute to the reader a new point of view straddling traditional classic car magazines, customization and lifestyle magazines. Above all, it may well surprise you.
Finally, I leave you the cover of number two and I inform you that Four Wheels Revival he has a little sister dedicated to motorcycles, Revival of The Machine.
