Plastic Ozone Daydream combines fact and fantasy on a wild ride through the birth, growth, and maturity of the sports car in America during the turbulent half-century, 1950-2000. The Baby Boomers changed everything. Look deeply into the reflection. Each story has its own identity, yet each is connected to all the rest. The author and his cast of affable characters say that 1970 was the pivotal year. Are they right? Plastic Ozone Daydream should stimulate your imagination as you cruise through the nostalgic Fifties, blast through the exciting Sixties with a burst of acceleration, and bring the anguish of the Nineties to the surface when your sports car cost more than your first house. These stories describe the broadest emotions with the least words. This book should remind us all why we love our sports cars. Plastic Ozone Daydream is intended to be both fun to read and challenging to the intellect, taking the reader on a journey he never knew existed through the crossroads of his own mind.
