American Cars, 1946-1959
Author: J. “Kelly” Flory, Jr.
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786452307
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 1049
Book Description
From the resumption of automobile production at the close of World War II through the 1950s, the American auto industry would see the births and deaths of several manufacturers, great technological advances, and an era of dramatic styling as a prospering nation asserted its growing mobility. Cars of this period are among the most iconic vehicles ever built in the United States: the 1949 Ford, the remarkable Studebaker designs of 1950 and 1953, the 1955-1957 Chevrolets, the "Forward Look" Chrysler products, the ill-fated Edsel and many others. This comprehensive reference book details every model from each of the major manufacturers (including independents such as Kaiser-Frazer and Crosley but excluding very low-volume marques such as Tucker) from model years 1946 through 1959. Year by year, it provides an overview of the industry and market, followed by an individual report on each company: its main news for the year (introductions or cancellations of models, new engines and transmissions, advertising themes, sales trends etc.); its production figures and market status; and its powertrain offerings, paint colors and major options. The company's models are then detailed individually with such information as body styles, prices, dimensions and weights, standard equipment and production figures. Nearly 1,000 photographs are included.

American ‘Independent’ Automakers - AMC to Willys 1945 to 1960
Author: Norm Mort
Publisher: David and Charles
ISBN: 178711838X
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
The independent automakers who had survived the depression of the 1930s had flexibility and enough capital from the war to be the first to launch all-new models for a car-starved nation. So lucrative was the American post-war car market that new automobile companies were also formed to cash in on the pent-up demand for new cars. This is their story told through text and the use of contemporary brochures, period literature, factory photos, road test info, and over 90 new, previously unpublished colour photos of restored examples to relate the importance of these historic vehicles.

Accidental Empires
Author: Robert X. Cringely
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0887308554
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
Computer manufacturing is--after cars, energy production and illegal drugs--the largest industry in the world, and it's one of the last great success stories in American business. Accidental Empires is the trenchant, vastly readable history of that industry, focusing as much on the astoundingly odd personalities at its core--Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Mitch Kapor, etc. and the hacker culture they spawned as it does on the remarkable technology they created. Cringely reveals the manias and foibles of these men (they are always men) with deadpan hilarity and cogently demonstrates how their neuroses have shaped the computer business. But Cringely gives us much more than high-tech voyeurism and insider gossip. From the birth of the transistor to the mid-life crisis of the computer industry, he spins a sweeping, uniquely American saga of creativity and ego that is at once uproarious, shocking and inspiring.

My Father the Car
Author: Stu Chapman
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781934729298
Category : Advertising personnel
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
"When Stu Chapman left his position of Director of Advertising and Public Relations for Studebaker in 1966, he inherited virtually all of the company's memorabilia from the 1960s. This material, coupled with a thousand memories had left him as an effective spokesperson for Studebaker. Now Chapman has recorded all of these memories for posterity in 'My Father The Car: Memoirs of my life with Studebaker.' As one normally learns about life and values from one's father, Stu Chapman's life's lessons were essentially learned from the automobile business. If his father really was the car, then Studebaker could be categorized as a surrogate father. Studebaker has been Stu's life for nearly five decades and continues to be."--Back cover.
