[Shaun Murphy]

Without a doubt one of my all time favourite books in my home library! I first picked up my copy of it as a Birthday present when I was 15,and even after all these years,it's still my go-to book for anything when I need references on 1970's automobiles,especially anything AMC (American Motors) and Chrysler related. Besides being filled with various interesting facts/liner notes and original pictures/period ads,you're able to read an interesting Forward relating to all the historical moments of that particular year,complete with the top Movies,TV shows and Music! If you love classic 1970's automobiles, as well as 1970's history and Pop Culture,I can not think of a better and more entertaining read than this.
