This review is from: Building and Detailing Scale Model Stock Cars (Paperback)
Without a doubt the best book out there about the subject it covers, building and detailing model stock cars. I have some models that would not exist were it not for the ideas I got from this book. Admittedly, some models have come out on the market since its publication to make some of the tasks easier by kit bashing instead of scratch building, but I feel it still remains the standard by which others will be measured for the subject it covers.
