Berlinetta `60s : Exceptional Italian Coupes of the 1960s

Dit boek toont een selectie van de meest opvallende Berlinetta's uit de jaren zestig, vastgelegd door Xavier de Nombel over de hele wereld.
Na zijn eerdere werk over coupés uit de jaren vijftig richt hij zich nu op een periode waarin klassieke vormen plaatsmaakten voor modern ontwerp. Zijn foto's - van de levendige Osca tot de gedurfde Carabo - geven zijn persoonlijke kijk op deze creatieve jaren.

Christian Descombes legt de grote veranderingen in de Italiaanse carrosseriebouw uit. Hij beschrijft de verschuiving van ambachtelijke productie naar industriële methoden en van exclusieve klanten naar grote internationale fabrikanten.

Het boek bevat ook een bijzonder hoofdstuk van Giorgetto Giugiaro, een sleutelfiguur uit die tijd. Hij geeft een blik van binnenuit op de ontwikkeling van het Italiaanse autodesign vanaf de naoorlogse jaren tot de jaren zestig.

Cars We Loved in the 1960s

If you owned a car in 1960s Britain, then you'll love this blast back in time to when driving was still fun, highway speed limits were unheard-of (well, until 1965 anyway), and buying a new car was a thrilling family event.
It was a golden period for iconic classic cars - the Mini Cooper, Jaguar E-type, AC Cobra and MGB - but also a time when British manufacturers really got their act together with stylish family models. Who can forget great little runabouts with evocative names like Anglia, Herald, Imp, Viva, Cortina and Hunter?
Meanwhile, Rovers, Triumphs and Jags were delighting executives as they cruised along near-empty motorways.

It was too good to last, of course, with regulations looming and fancy foreign cars creeping on to Britain's driveways by the end of the decade. In this richly illustrated book, Giles Chapman recalls all the key cars of the era that you probably owned - or at least coveted - and brings the swinging '60s back to life.

American Cars, 1960-1965 : Every Model, Year by Year

The automotive industry underwent great change in the 1960s. The continuing trend toward market consolidation, the proliferation of sizes and nameplates, and the "need for speed" characterized this period, loosely labeled as the muscle car era.

Model listings include available body styles, base prices, engine and transmission choices, power ratings, standard equipment, major options and their prices, curb weight and dimensions (interior and exterior), paint color choices, changes from the previous year's model, and sales figures.
Also given are assembly plant locations and historical overviews of each model nameplate.
