Title: Great
Review: Very happy with this purchase. The book has some really great cars in it, some no brainers and some I wasn’t expecting. There are even a couple I hadn’t heard of. Pictures are also very good. Item arrived brand new and in perfect condition. My only nit-pick(and it’s a very small one) is it went into a little more detail. Otherwise absolutely no complaints. Would highly recommend this to any car lover and look forward to purchasing the rest of the books in this line.

Title: If you have a guy in your life who loves classic cars…
Review: This is a book he will enjoy and for it being a hardcover for under $12 it’s a steal! My husband first saw this book while we were vacationing in a favorite town over the summer. The mark up was substantial so I made note of it and ordered it here for his birthday. It was a very nice surprise for this former Mustang Boss 302 owner.

Title: Great book, but should be shipped in a box
Review: Luckily I did not buy this to put on our table for guests. The sleeve makes the book look usedThe book itself is great, and my father in law will live it. He had a s stroke 25 years ago and doesn’t read, but he so much enjoys the pictures of classic muscle cars.

Review: Com este tÃtulo, pensei que o livro apresentaria apenas fotos daqueles carros quadradões dos anos 60 e 70, pois essa é a época dos muscle cars. Mas não, o livro mostra carros desde 1946, carros cheios de chrome, é verdade, mas sem nada de muscle. Há um pouco de tudo, muscle cars, sport cars, pony cars, clássicos e até woody cars. O livro não tem autor, e uma breve introdução é escrita nas orelhas da capa, sem explicar direito qual foi o critério para a escolha dos carros mostrados. Alguns carros parecem não ter absolutamente nada a ver com o tÃtulo do livro. Talvez tenham alguma importância nos Estados Unidos. Mesmo assim o livro é interessante. Apresenta sempre 2 fotos do carro por fora, uma foto do motor, uma do painel e um texto que não é curto demais para ser dispensável, nem grande demais para ser entediante. É um bom equilÃbrio entre imagens e informação.

Review: I’m gifting this book to my 31yr old son, who has been a race/muscle car enthusiast since he could walk. I believe he will like it. I’m happy with the quality of book. It’s a nice size, heavy, pages are good weight and great photos. I’m definitely glad I chose this book.

Review: Got this for my dad for Christmas and what a book, of course being a dodge guy he grumbled a bit about not so many dodges in there but he can still talk about the cars, he loves the pictures and the details about the cars. It is a great coffee table, conversation book.
