Car and Driver's American Road Warriors: Classic Muscle Cars

by Car and Driver Magazine

From America's most popular automotive magazine, the editors at Car and Driver present a one of a kind look at classic American muscle cars. With engines made for speed and power and a body to match, these are some of the coolest cars ever made. This tour of the best of these classic cars contains original articles from the cars' first releases, detailed road test entries that review each car in depth, and vintage ads. Each car is depicted in full color and includes detailed specifications, including performance specs, dimensions, transmission, and engine type. The introduction sets the stage for "pro-racing in the Sixties," with "the youth market, the drags and street racing; cheap gas and long Saturday nights; a fledgling Car And Driver hunting its identity." This amazing book even includes a jacket that doubles as a poster, the perfect gift for any lover of classic American cars.
