VW Trends was strictly for the Type 1 crowd, but since there is no magazine for us Type 4 folks I subscribed to it for the tech articles. It was at least better than Hot VWs on that score and cheaper than the European VW magazines.

I remember when it was Volkswagen Greats before it turned into VW-Porsche.
I still have the first issue of VW-Porsche(Feb-79).
It had a great article called Type 4 power play.
I built the same motor for my 914 back then.
The displacement was 103mmX71=2364CC.
I drag raced it on the avenue until it died.
They later came out with an article called Hidden power featuring a MSDS turbo'd six in a 914.
I used that article to convert my next 914 to a six minus the turbo.
I followed that magazine in more ways than one.
I still subscribe to European Car but its pretty boring with few and far between 914 articles.
