I don’t mean to brag (actually I do), but I was fortunate enough to experience the decades of the Muscle Car.
It’s true! I recall the introduction of the Mustang, the Roadrunner, the Cougar, the Charger and dozens of other high-performance, high-horsepower and gas-guzzling automotive beasts on wheels. It was awesome!
A good friend of mine when I was a teenager had a souped up Ford Galaxie with a modified V8 engine, custom paint job, chrome plated wheels and all the bells and whistles. That baby moved!
In The Age Of The Muscle Car author Clay Fees and publisher McFarland & Company, Inc. Publishers, readers are introduced to the decades of speed courtesy of the muscle cars that lived up to their moniker.
Inside the book readers while find out all about the history of muscle cars, the various cars and their manufacturers, accessories, special features and horsepower and engine specs all complemented by black and white and full-color photos.
Man, does this book bring back memories! Cruising the highways, hitting the beach, picking up girls, racing the straightaways and soaking in the music on our radios and 8 tracks, drive-ins, drag strips, auto mechanics class, chrome, custom wheels and tires and the purr and roar of the stock and custom V8 engines!
More than a trip down Memory Lane the book provides information on the styling, performance, marketing and the joy of owning a classic muscle car in the 20th Century.
Mark 9:23 - Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
