Buy it now. I have other driving books, some good, some not so... this one, EXCELLENT! Teh technique of driving is what so many people just do not understand, this tells you and then shows you in superb pictures. I recommend this book for beginning drivers as well as experienced racers. This is one of those books that you will learn something no matter who you are, after all, Senna was the greatest ever!

This is my nine month old sons FAVORITE book. We've read it every night for a few months now. It's always the first book he pulls out of his basket. He loves turning the pages and looking at the brightly colored drawings! Plus he's able to play with it like a toy.

I throughly enjoyed this book. Barney gives several humorous tales from his years as an MRN broadcaster as well as close calls while on the job. This book is a great read and a must for any race fan. I just hope we can get him to stay on the radio a few more years. THERE IS NO ONE LIKE BARNEY HALL!!!!

I have followed the work of George and(the late) Sam Barris since 1953. Their work set a trend for all custom car builders and owners. George has done a great tribute to many car builders by showing these terrific photos of many cars that we all thought were lost. As one reads thru the book, you begin to realize that these rolling sculptures are true works of art, and several of these vehicles have been featured in museums and art shows. One can thank George for having the ability to photograph these (K)custom cars during the 1950s.

I'll start off this way, I bought this set of books for a Junior College Automotive Class, and read it before the class sesion even started - and I don't like to read. This is not a dry manual filled with borring specifications. This is an easy to read common sense book.

It covers the lingo we as car owners need to speak to get the right parts and service for our vehicles. (The glossary is in English and in Spanish).

It breaks up the automobile into it's separate systems, and describes them in detail. It prepares you for some fundamental troubleshooting.

Buy it!

MWM lays out the basics in a way anyone can understand. He uses photos to show how he stripes a hot rod light housing and also shows many basic designs that you can immediately start practicing with. This book doesn't overwhelm you with a bunch of fancy lines and lettering, rather, it lists the materials you'll need to start striping and shows some basic technique. A quick read of about 20 minutes but you'll find yourself referring back to it over and over. I've read all of the pinstriper instructional book/pamphlets out there and i think i got the most out of this one.

Although expensive, this historical account truly is worth every penny. Any automotive historian or enthusiast would be amazed at all the information available in these fantastic volumes. Every make of car that ever existed in the world is described, many in detail unexpected in a work covering such a vast canvas. This is a reworked version of an earlier book, also edited by G.N. Georgano, which had such fine contributers as Michael Sedgwick and Hans Otto Neubauer. The current work has been written by many of the original authors, with fantastic new additions. Michael Sedgwick, one of the greatest automotive historians ever, passed away in 1983. The work has rightfully been dedicated to him. The fact that Lord Montague of Beaulieu is connected with this work is another plus, since his museum and reasearch center are second to none, and books he has authored are among the best, and occupy a proud place in my library. I find myself consulting the Beaulieu Encyclopedia of the Automobile almost on a daily basis!

This book describes all known coachbuilders. During the automobile's classic age, vehicle manufacturers offered bare chassis for the purpose of having coachbuilt bodies mounted on them. The coachbuilders who built these bodies created true works of art. Anyone interested in this fascinating segment of history is urged to buy this book. It is truly worth the price.
