2017 Gold Medal Winner of the International Automotive Media Competition! Uncover the captivating history of the highest-performace cars in America, illustrated with beautiful photography. The American muscle car began not in the factories of the big three automakers, but in the garages and dealerships of a hot-rod subculture bent on making the hottest, highest-performance cars on the street. The Complete Book of American Muscle Supercars catalogs these amazing cars, along with the builders who unleashed them on the American scene. From Michigan's Royal Pontiac dealership and the souped-up Royal Pontiac Bobcats they built and sold, to the new cars from such fabled names as Carroll Shelby, Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge, Nickey Chevrolet, Don Yenko, George Hurst, Baldwin-Motion, Calloway, SLP, and Steve Saleen. This gorgeously illustrated book chronicles the outstanding contribution of the tuner/builder to American automotive history through the amazing machines they created. From the oldest of these muscle tuners commanding top dollar at today's classic-car auctions, to the latest vehicles by Ford and Chrysler, with their SVT and SRT divisions, this book gives readers a full and fascinating look at American high-performance in its purest form.

Many argue that the Ford GT40 is the classic racing car of its era, conceived to rewrite the rulebook at LeMans by taking on -- and beating -- the hitherto all-dominant Ferraris. In this expanded edition, the author recalls the GT40's six epic seasons of racing and the legacy that it left on international motorsports. All-new contemporary color photography is complemented by painstakingly researched GT40 documentation, including: -- Ownership and identification records for each individual car -- A race record listing the fate of all GT40s entered in major events -- Technical specifications for the six main variants of the GT40 theme -- A chronicle of GT40s built and kitted out to be driven on the road -- models which are today among the most valuable of exotic sports cars The GT40 represents a significant chapter in what many race fans consider the golden age of postwar auto racing. This is the GT40's story of fierce competition, dedication, tragedy, and, ultimately, of complete and repeated success.
