Synopsis

This book takes an in-depth look at more than 50 race car manufacturers and more than 100 racing specials. Many of these have never before been covered in book form. Vintage American Road Racing Cars takes an encyclopedic approach, providing vintage and modern photography, specifications, and a narrative history for each car or manufacturer. Knockout photos of period-appropriate memorabilia, tools, etc, add to the nostalgic feel of this high-quality book. Vintage racing is gaining in popularity every year. According to Victory Lane magazine, vintage races are attended by about 1.5 million people in the U.S. each year. Around 5,500 people own a vintage race car in the U.S., but, including crew and workers, about 22,000 Americans participate in vintage racing at some level. Another 20,000 participants live in Europe and Asia.
