Download or read book Citroen DS written by Geoffrey Webber and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Citroën DS was selected by motoring experts and the public as the most beautiful classic car of the twentieth century. French designer Flaminio Bertoni's 'Goddess' is considered a work of art, a sculpture on wheels. Some even called it the Sydney Opera House of motoring. Released in October 1955 in Paris, France, the first DS19 to arrive in Australia stunned onlookers at the Sydney Royal Easter Show in 1956. Its most notable innovation was the suspension, allowing the car to go 'up and down'. But there were many more outstanding features that made it such a seductive car. Many DS models came to this country from 1956 to 1975. As Citroën celebrates a hundred years since its launch, it is fitting to record the untold stories of the importers, distributors, owners, mechanics, racing drivers, restorers, artists and many more behind the story of the DS in Australia. With over 750 photographs, 120 original illustrations and exhaustive research, the authors have given voice to a definitive history of the Citroën DS in this country, capturing the essence of this stunning design and engineering marvel.

Book excerpt: In a classic car photography book packed with an eclectic mix of automotive images, Lance Cole (author of the Classic Car Adventure) presents a stunning collection of photographs of old cars of all marques and types captured in many locations. Across Allards to Bugattis, Citroëns DKWs, Porsches, Saabs, Triumphs, Voisins, VWs, and a potpourri of well-known classics, the author has journeyed far and wide to create a wonderful diary of classic car moments amid the great enthusiasm for nostalgia on wheels. A mix of cars, people, portraits, action and atmosphere all blend in to a colorful journey across the classic car world in a diverse blend of marques and eras. 250 color and black and white images populate an odyssey across a landscape of cars in an interesting format that pitches multimillion pound cars alongside more humble names. Seen on the move and static, Lance Cole’s photographs capture the essence of metal sculpture, light falling upon paint and form, and the design hallmarks of old cars prior to the age of digital design authoritarianism when so many cars look similar. If you love old metal, patina, paint, leather, and enthusiasm, all captured across vintage, veteran, classic and modern classic metal, then Classic Car Gallery is a rare memento of the cars of yesteryear seen in the celebration of their today.

Book excerpt: Hanging With Old Cars is a magnificent collection of photos, words and poetry capturing old car moments forgotten through time and reclaimed by nature. These beautiful old cars are lost to a world of technology. Where all things fast is preferred and having more over less is desired, it is easy to forget their stories, their voice and their grandeur. Sure there are few examples about, but in a world when everything needs to be done yesterday, they can easily be missed, left unnoticed or quickly scooped up for a quick dollar. Now that’s ok, but one day when they’re all gone... then what? Rusty Love by John Timmins manages to capture and recreate those untold stories through his photography, poetry and art. It is a romantic journey that invites you to join him on a walk back in time when cars had a voice. The once warriors, war horses and daily drivers, the shining examples and the mistreated have all added their own part to the Australian culture. This far away land keeps them secret as they sleep through the elements, their shadows are all they have. Hanging with old cars is a step back in time for those who choose to reminisce and for others who wish for old things to be new again.
