OVERVIEW:
The magazine was the creation of Peter Sukalac, who provided the photos, stories, elbow grease and money.
Northwest Rods was published in Portland, Oregon from October, 1957 until April, 1958. It
featured motorcycles, dragsters, sprint cars, and customs. Only
four issues were published during a period when the interest in hot rods
and sports cars sky-rocketed.
Mr. Sukalac continued as an automotive photographer and journalist; he contributed hundreds of articles to car magazines such as Rod & Custom and Car Craft between 1954 and 1980. Peter was born in Rainer, Oregon in 1922 and died in Salem, Oregon in February 2003.
