Book Description
Back in the 1950s and 1960s, cars such as the Jaguar XK 120, the ASA Cisitalia, Veritas, or Pegaso could be seen performing superbly on the racing circuits of Europe. The classic models of some 150 different makes are featured in this comprehensive reference work. This book takes you back to the racing circuits of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s when automobiles such as those of Gianni and Lamborghini ruled the road. The book also covers lesser-known makes such as the kit cars that Lotus sold for people to build themselves; there are sports cars for the road as well as for the race track. For instance, did you know that the Merak closely resembled the Bora but was powered by the same V-6 motor used in the SM Citroen? That is because the factory needed to use up its large stock of these engines. The book contains the fascinating stories of the manufacturers and designers of countless famous and lesser-known brands of both road-going and racing sports cars. With more than 750 color photographs, this is an essential reference work for automobile enthusiasts, especially classic sports car-lovers. Book jacket.

The Encyclopedia of Muscle Cars
Author: Jim Campisano

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Feel the heat--the street heat from the 1960s and 70, when the meanest, fastest, and most powerful cars tore up the streets. Jim Campisano, editor in chief of Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords magazine, has written the ultimate, illustrated A to Z field guide of these supreme, extreme American vehicles. Muscle cars came onto the market when Detroit's "big three" manufacturers (Chevy, Ford, and Pontiac) decided to compete for a younger, more performance-obsessed buyer at the end of the 1950s. Gone were the bulky "land boats" with their huge fins; instead, out came lean ponycars, like the Dodge Coronet 500 Convertible and the Ford Falcon, pumped up on big-inch, high-compression, multiple-carburetor equipped super-mills. Though they were sold to the general public, any one of them, with only minor adjustments, could have won on the superspeedways of the NASCAR circuit. Even now, three decades after these gas-guzzling greyhounds went out of style, they regularly attract new generations of admirers throughout the world.
