In the 51 years that the Corvette has been part of the American automotive backdrop, hundreds of people, places and innovations have touched America's favorite sports car. In the Corvette Illustrated Encyclopedia, Tom Benford has surveyed five decades of the Corvette and compiled an essential reference work for all who have ever had either a passing or a passionate interest in Chevrolet's flagship.
Arkus-Duntov, Earl, Hall, Mitchell, Thompson—who are these men and how did they effect the development or history of Corvette? Warren, St. Louis, Bowling Green, Le Mans, Sebring, Elkhart Lake - What significance do these locations have for the Corvette and what do they mean to current enthusiasts? Posi, bolt-ons, breadloaf - out of context, these terms mean virtually nothing. But in this invaluable automotive reference book, Tom Benford puts these terms into perspective.

The sign of the white and blue propeller circle has signified BMW since the 1930s: sporty, dynamic, radiating brilliance, with timeless elegance and countless successes in the German touring car championships, as well as in Formula 2 and Formula 1 racing. The mention of BMW brings to mind legendary cars like the pre-war 328, the 507 from the mid-1950s, or the M1 of the late 1970s. But the name BMW also stands for attempts to lend mobility to a wide class of buyers, for example with the Isetta and the 700. In a historical overview, this book first tells the legendary history of the Bavarian automobile firm and goes back to its beginning, the traces of which are lost in the darkness of the First World War. Following this, individual models are introduced by means of articles and excellent color photography.

Tony Thacker
Published by:
Benedikt Taschen Verlag
Ford’s original Model T was the first car to undergo “speed modification”, a hobby that quickly grew into a $60-million aftermarket industry. Steadily picking up speed ever since, the practice of engine and body customization has become one of America’s favorite rites of passage. Hitting its stride in the 1950s, the underground hot rod culture spawned the likes of Rat Fink, Von Dutch, and George Barris —the King of Kustoms— while also inspiring a generation of rebels without a cause. Culled from the garages and toolboxes of hot rod enthusiasts, this essential collection of rare photos and ephemera is an essential for anyone who dreams of putting the pedal to the metal.

Published by:
White Star
Italians have been the pioneers in the design and manufacture of the car, and Italy has written many important pages in the history of the 'horseless carriage'. And if it's true that the car was born, developed and grew to maturity elsewhere, it's also true that the entire world recognizes the great contribution Italians have made to design, style, elegance, and technological innovations. This volume takes the reader on a journey through more than 150 years of the Italian car - in the models that have marked its history. The narrative ranges from the earliest internal combustion engine to the small Rebus built by Carlo Menon in the late 19th century to the first races, and then moves onto the First World War, to the fabulous Twenties with four-wheel masterpieces that the whole world envied and asked for: then, after World War II, the book addresses post-war reconstruction, the economic boom, mass motorisation and moves on up to today's ...
