Trucking Wife

I got this book for my over the road trucker. He is all into the custom stuff and the shine of the stainless. He found some things wrong with a few of the trucks, but personal prefference, I guess. =) I liked it. Made me feel like i has at the show & shine in louisville, KY at the truck show. I would recomend it to others.

Very Good Book

If you have ever admired a big rig roll down the highway, this book is for you. The trucks in this book are of course all show trucks (some working). Each truck has an amazing description with great pictures. This is a really good book for anyone who likes trucking.

Bette Garber Showtime Special

The most exciting Custom truck color pictorial to hit the streets in a while. 95 pages of photos and descriptions, and particularly great is the inclusion of many interior shots. The book begins with a few chapters entitled 'Trucks that make you go WOW!', 'Transforming a working truck into a custom working show truck', 'Extreme Details', and 'Show Offs'...a chapter detailing some of the major US venues and events for Custom Show truck displays. From there, fourteen trucks, and their owners, get a chapter each. This book is an excellent foreruner to her recently released 'Big Rigs'. If you are into custom showtrucks both of these books are "must haves"

From a woman who has been taking photographs of trucks for over twenty years has finally came out with a book of her excellent work of photograph, of trucks. You have seen in work for American Trucker magazine up to current Roadstar magazine. I have to say its about time that she has had a photographs published in her own book. She covers 28 show trucks,over a span about 5 yrs. All in All get this book, if you love the show trucks that are at the truck show, you will love this book. I was pleased to have this sittin under the Christmas tree.
