3.0 out of 5 stars 4 to 5 stars had there been color!, January 16, 2000

By	Chris Batson (Lake Crystal, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This is an excellent book with tons of pictures. Foreword by Herb Adams the suspension king. There isn't really too much to say about it except for some great pictures, and it would probably be a ton better had the pictures been in color. Every year car up to the 30th anniversary is shown in this book. There are also a few customs and some of the other cars like the concepts. You won't be dissappointed, but you will with no color. Recommended

3.0 out of 5 stars Can we have a little color, please!?, August 11, 1999

By A Customer

This book was pretty well written, but in the 20th century, we all could use a little color to perk up our days. There was a great amount of pictures. . . A LOT OF PICTURES! But absolutely no color--except for the brilliant cover photo. I guess I'm too materialistic.
