Popular Hot Rodding was published by Argus Publishers Corporation. The founder was Gordon Behn, who worked previously for Petersen Publishing as the circulation manager. The magazine was first printed in June 1962 and continued until 2014. It was a large format magazine.

From the beginning, over fifty percent of content was focused on drag racing or the technical aspects of performance. Drag racing coverage was split between driver profiles, the emerging performance factory cars, and featured drag cars. However, each issue usually had several traditional styled hot rods featured. Therefore, this title is presented in the muscle and performance car sub-section on our website. Unlike its competitors, Popular Hot Rodding excluded content on model cars, slot cars, motorcycles, and go-karts. It was a "straight up" car magazine.

Note: The publisher goofed up the volume and serial number scheme in both January and February 1977, so volume 16 numbering was skipped entirely. This error and another one in 1988 resulted in volume numbering being correct by 1989.
