Awesome book, Great Pictures. Made me want to go out west and hunt some of these vehicles down.

There are quite a few books (and especially calendars) that are devoted to presenting photographs of clunkers along the American backroads. This effort is especially rewarding and worth reading because it is organized very well by automobile year, make and model with really great commentary on each photographed vehicle. A really great nostalgia trip for those of us who love old cars. My favorite part of the book was the realization that I've seen a few of these cars and have been to a few of the locations "in person". I am not quite sure if this sort of book would appeal to most folks...but if the reader is an old car nut...there is no better book for my money. Really great fun and a wonderful conversation starter amongst other old car gearheads.

I can't get enough of this book. I read it over and over again. The photos are top notch and I loved the caption that goes with every photo. I high recommend this book. You will not be disappointed!

Customer Rating: 

This is a great book, not only because of the excellent photos.
The ironic comments help make reading fun too.
And there are stories to go with the cars, if such stories could be found.
That makes the slimmer 'Out of Gas' which I ordered earlier a rather poor effort,
in spite of its also good photos. (no information on the cars or the location there)

To Europeans many of the photos will seem very strange: cars stitting in the middle
of nowhere would be hard to find, so much neglect... But most of all the fact that
many cars in this book are riddled with bullet holes. This can only be from one country...
