Hot Rods & Custom Cars
Description:
Drivers have been customizing their vehicles since the earliest days of motoring, with modified bodywork, more powerful engines or simply an unusual paint job. Hot Rods and Custom Cars is a celebration of the world of custom cars, from V8-modified Ford Model Ts to elegant 'Lead Sleds' such as the 1949 Mercury and powerful muscle mutations such as the Plymouth Road Runner.This book looks in detail at over 45 beautiful custom cars from the UK, Europe and America, providing an exhilarating tour of some of the most amazing and spectacular automobiles ever to have rolled out of a garage. Covering outlandish and extrovert vehicles based on all the most famous marques including Chevrolet, Ford, Hudson, Mercury, Volkswagen and Willys, Hot Rods and Custom Cars is packed with a wealth of information. Each car is presented in 3-view format, with key engineering changes and styling features annotated. A feature box lifts the bonnet to focus on each car's unique powerplant, while informative and lively text details the car's development, design and handling. A comprehensive specifications panel provides technical information. Lavishly illustrated with over 400 colour photographs, this book will appeal to anyone with a love of these souped-up, customized machines.
