Présentation de l'éditeur :
Weird Cars is compilation of 77 avant garde, silly, slow, experimental, failed, rare, ridiculous, revolutionary, obsolete, obscure idiotic, and X-rated machines. Written for the knowledgable and adventurous automotive enthusiast, the book is a series of vignettes focused on car stories you won't read anywhere else. As much as you may know about automotive history, sometimes strange things happen. Designs emerge. Tastes change. Economies collapse. Companies merge. Racing selects the winners. Sales Weird cars are interesting because they’re different. Because sometimes the world wasn’t ready—and sometimes because people don’t want to buy a Ferrari with no doors. From a royal car named after a nuclear bomb test to an SUV known by its exhaust pipes, Weird Cars is a collection of misfits thrown together simply because they don’t belong anywhere else.
