Merchants of Speed
The Men Who Built Americas Automotive Performance Industry
by Paul Smith
|
|
|
|
|
Hot rodding has always been about taking something that Detroit
built and making it leaner and faster. At the epicenter of the
movement was a cast of driven 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. Drawing upon hundreds of hours of interviews conducted
with these founding fathers of hot rodding, Smith details the work of
industry icons such as Iskenderian, Edelbrock, Evans, Hilborn,
Navarro, Offenhauser, Sharp, Weiand, Ansen, and Kong. Illustrated
with more than 200 period photos and filled with firsthand accounts
of the birth of hot rodding, and the automotive aftermarket industry,
this book is a truly fitting celebration of the names that became
synonymous with speed.
