5.0 out of 5 stars Not Just for Gearheads, November 7, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Hot Rods: An American Original (Hardcover)
How many times have you walked into a bookstore and seen picture books of cars for $4.99? Well, this isn't one of them, Vincent is an artist and the pictures are beautiful. The text is interesting and informative even if you are NOT a gearhead. This is more than just a peek into a fascinating culture kept alive by a lot of greybeards, it's an education - a fun one too. This is not just a guy obsession - a lot of women love hot rods as well. All ages welcome...AC

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have this one!, October 31, 2001
By 
Don Small (Altadena, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hot Rods: An American Original (Hardcover)
If you ever owned, rode-in, worked-on, loved or wanted a real HOT ROD then this is your book. The pictures and the selection of featured cars is superior to any other book like this one. You will go back to it over and over.
This would be a perfect gift for anyone who ever owned, rode-in, worked-on, loved or wanted a real HOT ROD and was to good a father or husband to give up the time or money necessary to make that dream come true. This is just simply a wonderful experience.
