Auto Round-Up Publications was founded
in 1974 by Ron Smith and is a second-generation, family-owned and
operated business whose headquarters is in Jane Lew, WV. The company publishes 12
collector vehicle magazine titles, a website that features classic cars for
sale, and editorials including car show coverage, automotive history, how-to
tech tips and much more. Auto Round-Up is an industry leader and is
considered by many to be a very valuable resource when it comes to pricing the
value of cars in the hobby. Auto Round-Up is the largest magazine publisher in
West Virginia with a circulation of over 300,000 copies distributed to over
25,000 retail locations nationwide each month. Over a period of 48 years, this
publishing company has released over 2,000 issues and helped save or sell
over 1 million classic cars and trucks throughout the collector automobile
hobby, but more importantly has helped bring members of the hobby together,
while also influencing others to join the collector vehicle hobby through car
clubs located all over the world. Most of these car clubs are nonprofit
organizations whose efforts include helping raise funds for cancer,
osteoporosis, and AIDS research, The Ronald McDonald House, Make-A-Wish
Foundation, veterans organizations, 4-H programs, and Boy Scouts of America
projects, as well as many other charity causes.
