BRUGT BOG - The Complete Book of the SR-71 - Richard Graham - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG - The Complete Book of the SR-71 - Richard Graham - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG The ultimate SR-71 book which profiles the history, development, manufacture, modification, and active service of all 50 models in the SR-71 program. At the height of the Cold War in 1964, President Johnson announced a new aircraft dedicated to strategic reconnaissance. The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird spy plane flew more than three-and-a-half times the speed of sound--so fast that no other aircraft could catch it. Above 80,000 feet, its pilots had to wear full-pressure flight suits similar to what was used aboard the space shuttle. Developed by the renowned Lockheed Skunk Works, the SR-71 was an awesome aircraft in every respect. It was withdrawn from use in 1998, when it was superseded by satellite technology. Twelve of the thirty-two aircraft were destroyed in accidents, but none were ever lost to enemy action. Throughout its thirty-four-year career, the SR-71 was the world''s fastest and highest-flying operational manned aircraft. It set world records for altitude and speed: an absolute altitude record of 85,069 feet and an absolute speed record of 2,193.2 miles per hour. The Complete Book of the SR-71 Blackbird covers every aspect of the SR-71''s development, manufacture, modification, and active service from the insider''s perspective of one of its pilots and is lavishly illustrated with more than 400 photos. Former pilot and author Richard Graham also examines each of the fifty planes that came out the SR-71 program (fifteen A-12s; three YF-12s; and thirty-two SR-71s) and tells each plane''s history, its unique specifications, and where each currently resides.

American Muscle Cars - Darwin Holmstrom - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

American Muscle Cars - Darwin Holmstrom - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

This is the muscle car history to own—a richly illustrated chronicle of America's greatest high-performance cars, told from their 1960s beginning through the present day! In the 1960s, three incendiary ingredients—developing V-8 engine technology , a culture consumed by the need for speed , and 75 million baby boomers entering the auto market—exploded in the form of the factory muscle car. The resulting vehicles, brutal machines unlike any the world had seen before or will ever see again, defined the sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll generation . American Muscle Cars chronicles this tumultuous period of American history through the primary tool Americans use to define themselves: their automobiles. From the street-racing hot rod culture that emerged following World War II through the new breed of muscle cars still emerging from Detroit today, this book brings to life the history of the American muscle car. When Pontiac's chief engineer, John Z. DeLorean , and his team installed a big-inch engine into the division's intermediate chassis, they immediately invented the classic muscle car. In those 20 minutes it took Bill Collins and Russ Gee to bolt a 389 ci V-8 engine into a Tempest chassis they created the prototype for Pontiac's GTO —and changed the course of automotive history. From that moment on, American performance cars would never be the same. Featured cars represent all American automakers of the time— Chrysler , Ford , General Motors , and AMC —as well as landmark models like the Challenger , Charger , Road Runner , Super Bee , Super Bird , 'Cuda , Camaro , Chevelle SS , 442 , Boss Mustang , GTX , Javelin , AMX , and much more. American Muscle Cars tells the story of the most desirable cars ever to come out of Detroit. It's a story of flat-out insanity told at full throttle and illustrated with beautiful photography.

HOT ROD Magazine - Drew Hardin - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

HOT ROD Magazine - Drew Hardin - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

Here is the officially licensed anniversary celebration of the world’s longest continuously published and best-known automotive magazine. HOT ROD Magazine: 75 Years celebrates the stunning content that has been created and published by the magazine’s staff in all or parts of nine decades. Witness how HOT ROD has been on scene for the entirety of the postwar performance movement with photographs and articles detailing dragsters , roadsters , slingshots , Funny Cars , coupes , customs , lead sleds , muscle cars , and their builders and owners . Take a look back through pages that have captured the imaginations of gearheads nationwide by featuring the works of customizing greats like Ed “Big Daddy” Roth, Von Dutch, and George Barris, to name a few. There’s also a look at the great journalism of such hot-rodding legends as Gray Baskerville, and the creations of builders like Pete Chapouris, Boyd Coddington, Steve Moal, Roy Brizio, and Chip Foose—complete with decades of archival black and white and color photographs of the cars and personalities that comprise hot rodding history. In the late 1940s, a young photographer and Army Air Corps veteran named Robert E. Petersen astutely noted the rapidly growing hot rod scene in Southern California. Buoyed by war veterans with tech savvy, disposable income, and a need for speed, the hot-rodding hobby was without much in the way of informational publishing. In a brilliant stroke, Petersen stepped into the void in 1948, launching HOT ROD magazine. Petersen Publishing would grow into a worldwide media empire featuring several publications. Today, HOT ROD magazine endures as one of the most iconic enthusiast publications ever . HOT ROD is not simply a magazine—after 75 years, it’s still the magazine of automotive enthusiasts, known and appreciated the world over. This is the definitive and officially licensed look back at that influence.
