The book, Cars: The New Classics (The Greatest Cars Made Since 1945), focuses attention on a number of postwar vehicles that are rapidly becoming collector's items, restored immaculately and much-sought after as both showpieces and investments. As the author points out, until the 1980s the only cars that were generally considered classics were those produced before World War II but more recently there is a strong movement to preserve the very best "modern cars". Included in this book are many fascinating stories about the world's "modern classics" and their manufacturers. This book takes a look at a number of these "modern Classics" including the following vehicles: 1) Pegaso Z 102 B; 2) Vokswagen Beetle; 3) Bentley Continental; 4) Sprite; 5) Austin Mini; 6) Jaguar E type; 7) Lamborghini Countach; 8) Chrysler 'Town and Country' and 9) Ford GT 40. While some of these vehicles are unique, others are expensive, astonishing, charming, futuristic, sophisticated or spectacular. The one thing all of the reviewed automobiles have in common is that enthusiasts often for many different reasons, feel the cars reviewed in this book are or will shortly be considered "modern classics". The major sections of this book include the following: 1) First In Their Class; 2) Sports Cars; 3) Saloon Cars And Convertibles; 4) Exotic Cars; 5) Competition Cars and 6) Index. In addition to an informative narrative, the book, Cars: The New Classics (The Greatest Cars Made Since 1945), includes approximately 69 stunning color photographs. This book is 80 pages and is in excellent condition. The author is Chris Harvey. Edition published in 1984.
