Customer Reviews

The perfect Muscle car coffee table item.

Although somewhat limited in the mecanical evolution of the car like diferentials, shifters, tranies, computer chips, options etc... This book's sturdy, glossy pages are covered with great looking photographs of some very rare and perfectly restored Camaros. The Photography is class-A and the history write up is very imformative about the platform in general (as well as tuners and special packages introduced). This book makes for a great coffee table book. Interesting for 2 minutes, or for a complete read. Also mentions historical perspective (such as the "mustang responce" which created the car, to the demise of the Charger, Javelin, and the Camaro's relation to the Pontiac Firebird). A great read for your teens to learn muscle car history. Original promotional material (posters etc..) are shown throughout the book and will take you back to the moment the car was made.The final chapter covers the 4th gen cars (1993-2001). Lastest cars shown include a red 1998 SS convertible, a 1997 30th Anniversary Z28, a '97 30'th Ann. Brickyard pace car, and a '96 SS. Prototype cars are also shown throughout the book.Why not 5 stars? I'd like a little more on the mechanical side, but that s just me. Worth the price (hey I paid more in a store, opps). :)
