American Dream Cars: 60 Years of the Best Concept Vehicles

Factory-built concept cars are created to tantalise the public, and the response engendered provides direction for development of future models. Over 650 different dream cars are featured in this book - more than has ever been showcased before - from the significant to the obscure. Rarely seen photographs of vehicles such as the Thunderbird Saturn, Olds El Torero, and Dodge Firearrow grace the pages, often with two or more views of each entry. Chronologically organised, this new reference offers a visual history of the wonderful and sometimes wacky experimental machines, starting with the Buick Y-Job dream car of the 1930s up to the 2002 fuel-cell-propelled concept cars and light-duty trucks.
