The Essential Muscle Car
by Mike Mueller
|
|
|
|
|
The Essential Muscle Car tells the full story of America's most
exciting cars from their early days, covering the developments in
style, and details of the increases in power. Knudsens Pontiac
Division probably deserves to be credited with introducing the first
bona fide Muscle Car, the mighty and magnificent GTO. Based on
the Tempest, the Pontiac GTO was as fast, if nor faster, in a straight
line than the Italian stallion whose initials it had cheekily usurped.
The motorists of America simply revelled in it combination of style
and potency. Soon everyone was in on the act, furiously pumping
iron - and a lot of gas. The Oldsmobile 4-4-2 and the Chevrolet
Impala Super Sport were followed in 67 by the Camaro. Ford soon
added the splendid Shelby Mustangs to its celebrated Pony Car line
and Chrysler rounded out the decade with their incredible Dodge
Daytona Charger and Plymouth Superbird. For a brief, glorious,
uninhibited, period before the arrival of the oil crisis and restrictive
legislation of the nineteen-seventies, American enjoyed the thrill of
unfettered automotive power and every stop light became the start
line of a drag strip.

Muscle Car Confidential
Here are the photos (including outtakes) and the hard cold
facts on muscle cars from the 1964 GTO to the 1976 Trans
Am 455 HO--twenty-four in all. The 1970 Buick Gran Sport
GSX, Oldham notes, was "the best handling muscle car we
ever tested." The 1968 Plymouth Road Runner, on the other
hand, was "just a car that didnt run very well"--despite its 426
Hemi. Today, people might know the articles Oldham wrote,
and they might know the performance numbers he got. But
how he did those things was an untold story. This
behind-the-scenes book is a close-up look at what it was like
to live in the muscle car era and to help create the myth that
still lives on today.

Million-Dollar Muscle Cars
The rare models that survived in good shape are a
collectors dream, easily commanding six-figure prices and
often passing the million-dollar mark. Million Dollar Muscle
Cars provides a photographic history of these rarest of rare
cars, from the high-performance fantasies of yesterday to the
high-finance wheeling and dealing of today. In full-color
pictures and detailed prose, the book follows these cars from
their performance beginnings to their decade of decline to an
automotive world awakening to their historical significance
and eternal cool.

Hot Rod Pin-ups
For as long as young men have been channeling, chopping,
and hopping up rods and customs, women - whether loyal
girlfriends or trouble-seeking "bad girls" - have been an integral
to their scene. In this unique portfolio evoking great 1950s
pin-up artists like Vargas and Elvgren, talented photographer
David Perry depicts models in and out of cherry-picked rods
and customs wearing painstakingly chosen period dress and
hairstyles. More than 100 photos present these modern-day
pin-ups under three themes: Garage, Cruising, and Race. In
addition, essays explore each topic and are also
accompanied by pulp novel covers, period mags, and ads
that place the photography in a historical context. Captions
identify the car owners, photo location, and, where
appropriate, interesting car specs and histories.
