Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back in the 1950s and 1960s, cars such as the Jaguar XK 120, the ASA Cisitalia, Veritas, or Pegaso could be seen performing superbly on the racing circuits of Europe. The classic models of some 150 different makes are featured in this comprehensive reference work. This book takes you back to the racing circuits of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s when automobiles such as those of Gianni and Lamborghini ruled the road. The book also covers lesser-known makes such as the kit cars that Lotus sold for people to build themselves; there are sports cars for the road as well as for the race track. For instance, did you know that the Merak closely resembled the Bora but was powered by the same V-6 motor used in the SM Citroen? That is because the factory needed to use up its large stock of these engines. The book contains the fascinating stories of the manufacturers and designers of countless famous and lesser-known brands of both road-going and racing sports cars. With more than 750 color photographs, this is an essential reference work for automobile enthusiasts, especially classic sports car-lovers. Book jacket.
