Synopsis
In 1955 Chrysler introduced the first of its famed 300 "letter series" cars. The company designed a stylish, sporty car, stuffed in one of its potent Hemi engines, and gave birth to the American muscle car. The C-300's combination of style and performance put the Mopar brand ahead of its competitors in the postwar performance race. When the Detroit performance wars began in earnest during the 1960s, Chrysler was well positioned to build the most outrageous, bodacious cars of an outrageous, bodacious era. Cars like the famed Charger, Hemi Cuda, Roadrunner, Superbird, and Challenger T/A dominated the dragstrips as well as the NASCAR ovals. With color combinations guaranteed to burn out the corneas of your eyes if you stared at them directly, they ruled the streets, the drive-ins, and parking lots of America. Nothing was cooler than Mopar muscle. Over the years these legendary Mopar muscle cars were the fastest, baddest, most outrageous machines to rip up American pavement. They still are, from the audacious Viper to the red hot SRT Neons, the names Mopar and Hemi are still synonymous with performance., Now in paperback, this book covers Chrysler's incredible series of muscle cars.

Nothing was cooler than Mopar muscle. Over the years these legendary Mopar muscle cars were the fastest, baddest assed, most outrageous machines to rip up American pavement. "This lavishly produced book is definitely a feast for all fans of this line of cars: the photography (by David Newhardt) is absolutely stunning. Not only are the pictures big, and of the highest quality, but the thought that has gone into their composition is plain for all to see. It could be argued that given the striking nature of these cars, and the wonderful backdrops, it would be hard to go wrong, but Newhardt went the extra mile here, and it shows. The story is also very comprehensive, listing all of the cars from the line, and taking time to tell the story in a well-researched, yet caring way. It is obvious that Robert Genat knows the subject well and loves it even more. . . . This book is a must-have for all lovers of American muscle, and thanks to the sheer depth of its coverage and drop-dead-gorgeous photography, the asking price of 34.99 is something of a bargain." - Classic Car Weekly (UK), Now in paperback, this book covers Chrysler's incredible series of muscle cars.

I've only seen hardcovers with a slick finish. This 2006 first edition USA publication likely had a dustcover when originally distributed. My experience here is a reminder that when a generic product illustration is used instead of an actual scan of the item, it is a good idea to ask questions about the condition of the book.
