Back by popular demand!
The hobby begged for The Standard Catalog of American Cars 1805-1942 to be re-released, and the publishers of Old Cars Weekly can now deliver it.
After hiding in a dusty corner of Old Cars Weekly's archives for a decade, the publishing materials for The Standard Catalog of American Cars 1805-1942 have been found and the book will be offered in a LIMITED run exclusively through Old Cars Weekly! This is the only book with detailed histories behind the 5,000 automobiles built from 1805-1942, most illustrated with period photographs. This extremely desirable resource covers all of the well-known and little-known vehicles built during this period, including steamers, electrics, motor buggies, high wheelers, cyclecars, high-volume production cars and one-offs among its 5,000-plus entries.
From Chevrolet to Packard, from the A Automobile to the to Zip, this massive and definitive volume contains in-depth information on every known automobile, from the Oliver Evans' steamer in 1805 to the last car off the production line before World War II. Whenever available, readers will receive identification data, engine displacement figures, horsepower ratings, chassis specs, body types and production numbers, original factory prices and engine specifications, to name a few. Also, pictures of each car trace the engineering and styling changes for each model from year to year to make identification a snap.
