Million Dollar Muscle Cars The Rarest and Most Collectible Cars of the Performance Era

They were the baby boomers' first cars and they were made to race. These cars, including Corvettes, 'Cudas, Mustangs, and Trans Ams, were driven until there wasn't much left. Now these muscle cars of the sixties and seventies are the stuff of legends . . . and nostalgia. And the handful of rare models that survived in good shape are collectors' dreams, easily commanding six-figure prices and sometimes passing the million-dollar mark. Million-Dollar Muscle Carsis a beautifully illustrated history of these rarest of rare cars, from the high-performance fantasies of yesterday to the high-finance wheeling and dealing of today. Specially commissioned photos and an expert text tell the story of these cars from their rise in the early sixties to their decline in the mid seventies to their re-emergence as performance icons of historical significance and eternal coolness. Author and top muscle expert Colin Comer explains what makes the world's most valuable muscle cars tick, providing insightful discussions of such cars as the19701971 Hemi 'Cuda Convertible, 1965 Shelby GT-350 R Model, 1967 Shelby GT500 "Super Snake," 1968 Camaro Z/28 Convertible, 1969 Trans Am Convertible, 1969 ZL1 Camaro, and 1971 Sox & Martin Hemi 'Cuda Drag Car.Comer, Colin is the author of 'Million Dollar Muscle Cars The Rarest and Most Collectible Cars of the Performance Era', published 2007 under ISBN 9780760329528 and ISBN 0760329524.
