The author really understands the magnetic attraction these cars had for guys growing up during the classic musclecar era. The book is great - it covers all makes fairly and has a wealth of photos and descriptions. But it also gives you a real understanding of why these cars were (and are) so special and why they're still revered today. Buy this book!
Excellent history and photograaphs!
