The digital version of the September edition of THE SHOP magazine is now available. In this issue, we climb into rooftop tents, we put the pedal to the metal on road racing products & news, we cover wraps & graphics & we handle shop safety with care. Check out all those articles and so much more at https://ow.ly/XTKX50ZB5rm.

As we mentioned last issue, the digital version is being presented in a new format, designed to make the magazine easier to read. Instead of zooming and panning through content, users will find a mobile-friendly, intuitive layout.

And the traditional print format is still available as well, through the downloadable PDF button found on the first page. We hope you enjoy this enhanced reader experience.

The August 2026 issue of THE SHOP magazine is now available online, debuting a brand-new format that's much easier to read and navigate. Our digital team worked long and hard on the new layout, and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out — and this issue gives you a great excuse to try it out.

Inside, you'll find our annual Supplier Spotlight, where advertising partners share an inside look at their operations and what makes them unique. We also dig into how specialty shops can accelerate their import performance business, how current market trends are affecting classic car values, and how to ride out the ups and downs of the performance shock market.

Check out all those articles & more at https://ow.ly/uFQo50ZqUxz — and then come back here and let us know what you think of our new digital format. Thanks for reading THE SHOP!
