Win on Sunday-- Sell on Monday

Racing sold cars. In the fifties, automakers found that victories in stock car races or drag races brought buyers to their showrooms. They began putting checkered flag badges on hot production models to symbolize the extra "muscle" under to hood.

By the sixties, the most powerful muscle car ever made hit the streets, strips and super speedways os America. "Super Cars" they called them. They lasted through the early seventies, then insurance and pollution teamed up to end their reign.

In the mid-eighties, the high-tech muscle car evolved as an envioronmentally friendly answere to the need for speed. Today, we have machines with exoric fours and sixes that can produce as much as 300 hp.

Standand Guide to American Muscle Cars is a book that can guide collectors through the word of high-performance vehicles from the sixties, seventies, eighties and nineties. Over 275 different types os cars and trucks are identified and detailed in these pages.
