Mopar Muscle Year 1990 Magazine Back Issues

Mopar Muscle was published by Dobbs Publishing in Lakeland, Florida. Dobbs was an upstart, independent publisher who started with Mustang Monthly in 1978 and built a strong portfolio of other muscle car and performance titles. This and other titles were sold to Petersen Publishing in 1998 as part of a larger transaction. Mopar Muscle had a slow start with publishing in 1988 and 1989. It was then a quarterly magazine in 1990 and went to a six times per year schedule in 1991. About a dozen or so other muscle car-focused magazines launched in the 1983 to 1988 timeframe, and Mopar Muscle followed a similar strategy with a focus on muscle car history, performance tuning, reproduction parts and restoration tips.
