Motion Performance Tales of a Muscle Car Builder Motion Performance Tales of a Muscle Car Builder
by Martyn Schorr
It was a driver's dream: Along with the full factory warranty, your car
came with a guarantee of 11.5-second quarter-mile times. It was also
Joel Rosen's dream, and in 1964, he set out to make it a reality. First
he built fast cars. Then, taking a page from Ford's win on Sunday,
sell on Monday strategy, he built a reputation by beating all comers
on drag strips and in street races. By 1967, Rosen's Motion
Performance was the place to go if you wanted a true muscle car,
and, if you ordered a Baldwin-Motion Chevrolet, a muscle car with a
full factory warranty. This book tells the inside story of how it all
happened. Brilliantly illustrated with period pictures and modern
color photos, the book takes readers along as Cobras, Chevrolets,
Oldsmobiles, even Volkswagen Beetles roll into the shop to get torn
down and rebuilt into cars unbeatable on the streets and drag strips.
A once-in-a-lifetime tale of power and speed, told by one of the
principals who put that performance within reach.

Merchants of Speed
Hot rodding has always been about taking something that
Detroit built and making it leaner and faster. At the center of the
movement was a group of men who designed and
manufactured the parts that made it all possible. This book
takes an appreciative look back at the early hot rodders who
worked out of their garages, basements, and backyards, and
the speed equipment they developed. In this mammoth
volume, Paul Smith examines the stories behind two dozen
speed equipment manufacturers and the go-fast goodies they
designed, developed, and sold.
