Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The Austin Seven was a hugely important arrival on the British motoring scene in 1922, its low price making car ownership available to a section of the public for whom this had earlier been a cost too far. It was cheap to run thanks to its small engine, and its simplicity did not frighten t…hose new to the mechanics of a car. The Seven heralded the demise of the cheap but flimsy cyclecar, and in the longer term it also attracted buyers away from the motor-cycle-and-sidecar combinations that had been the only way into motorised transport for those of limited means.A century after the Sevens introduction, the cars have a world-wide following. Part of the attraction is much the same as it always was simplicity of maintenance and the low cost of ownership. Yet the sheer variety of Sevens produced between 1922 and 1939 as Austin gradually developed the model is also a source of fascination and of some bewilderment and confusion.This book aims to give easy access to the key features of each variant of Austin Seven. It follows the vehicles evolution from its 1922 origins to 1939 when the last Seven was built.Yet the book goes far beyond that, giving details of models built outside Britain, coachbuilt cars, military variants and factory competition and record-breaking cars.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. For more than half a century the Morris Minor Traveller has been a familiar feature of rural and small-town Britain. Unpretentious, uncomplaining, half-timbered in an age of sleek pressed steel, Travellers were to be seen everywhere, laden with schoolchildren, dogs, jumble for the jumble sa…le, buzzing bravely along at no great speed. Ray Newell is the unchallenged authority on Minor matters, and here he begins by providing in-depth descriptions of the 803cc, 948cc and 1098cc Traveller models, with details of production and specification changes. He also looks at special purpose versions as used by the armed forces, the coastguard and even the Barbados police, plus one-off Travellers including an intriguing three-door conversion first built in the early 1950s. Includes a special section on restoring the Traveller's timber framework on the body. The final section of the book deals with upgrades available to bring the Minor's performance, braking and suspension up to more modern standards. These include engine replacements, five-speed gearboxes and disc brakes as well as less radical modifications. A beautifully illustrated detailed history of all the Morris Minor Traveller models with details of production and specification changes, plus special purpose versions and conversions.

This book aims to reveal, in words and colour pictures, how the 356 altered through 16 years of production.Accompanying…the text are 200 photographs showing all the significant changes in 356 specification.For Porsche purists, the 356 is the classic model from this distinguished marque. With its Volkswagen-derived layout of an air-cooled engine mounted at the rear, the 356 began a remarkable bloodline that survives to the present day in the form of the evergreen 911. Its historical significance is undoubted, but the 356 is also a car with special virtues - distinctive styling, first-class engineering, functional design and tremendous driver appeal.Through four distinct model phases - `Pre-A', A, B and C - the 356 evolved in a smooth progression, with numerous specification improvements that steadily improved the car without changing the essence of its personality.This family of cars continues to be held in great esteem today, but how many of these Porsches, restored or unrestored, boast the completely original and authentic specification that the most discerning enthusiasts now demand? The information needed to determine how a restored car should look and what parts it should contain can be hard to find, but help is at hand in Original Porsche 356 An attractive and detailed guide to one of the world's most appealing sport cars, Original Porsche 356 is indispensable for all owners, restorers, buyers and enthusiasts.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The Citroen 2CV was designed to bring affordable motoring to rural communities in France, but during a production run that spanned more than four decades it achieved far more than that. When already 25 years old, it presented an affordable solution to increasing fuel costs after the first O…il Crisis, and gained a legion of new devotees as a result. To help maintain its sales in this era, Citroen created a number of colourful special editions, which in some cases were specific to just one country, and in others differed between one country and the next.Along the way, the 2CV also became the foundation for a whole family of other small Citroens, which were known collectively as the A-series models. The Ami, the Dyane and the Mehari provided simple and affordable passenger transport, and both these and the 2CV itself were further developed to provide light commercial vehicles as well. Meanwhile, licensed overseas assembly plants developed their own derivatives, which added further colour and interest to the 2CV story.There were far more varieties of these cheap and cheerful Citroens than most people realise, and this book aims to catalogue them in an easily accessible format. It begins with an examination of the 2CVs origins in the 1930s and then follows the evolution of the production cars before going on to look at the Ami, Dyane and Mehari models, in every case detailing the multiple special editions as well as the mainstream types. There are special chapters on the commercial derivatives, on the less well-known variants that were built in Europe, and on those created far from the cars French home. The book closes with a look at the aftermarket conversions and accessories that became an important part of the 2CV story from the earliest times.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Jaguar founder Sir William Lyons had a terrific hit on his hands when he launched the 'compact' 2.4 Litre sports saloon in 1956. Motorists loved it, and those wanting more thrills were soon offered the 'hot' 120mph 3.4 Litre a year later. Both were replaced in 1960 by the Mark II models, wh…ich added a 3.8 Litre, and from there the range was developed and expanded with the long-booted S-Type of 1964, the 4.2 Litre 420 of 1967, and the final 240/340 models of 1968. Alongside there were the Daimler V8 and Sovereign models. The success of this family of cars can be attributed to Lyons's faultless instinct for what buyers wanted and his unerring eye when it came to styling his cars. And of course there was the fabulous six-cylinder XK engine which powered all Jaguars from 1948 through to 1985, with the equally inspired V8 in the Daimler. All these cars have enjoyed an exalted classic status for years, and the matter of originality has become more and more important to owners and prospective owners today.Here Nigel Thorley, the unrivaled expert on the cars who has been writing about them for more than 30 years, provides all the information that can be expected from books in our acclaimed Factory-Original series. Model by model, with hundreds of specially commissioned colour photographs of outstanding examples of the cars, he gives all the details of correct original factory specifications and equipment in all departments, right down to the tool kit.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The wartime Jeep continues to fascinate enthusiasts around the world, nearly eight decades after the first prototypes were built. Yet while it is true that there was only ever one Jeep, it is emphatically not the case that there was only one variety of Jeep. Not only were Jeeps built by bot…h Willys and Ford, but the supposedly standardised design continued to evolve during production. As a result, there are multiple differences of specification - some major, some tiny - among the models.Through the painstakingly researched text, and through detailed colour photography of outstanding examples of the cars, this book attempts to identify and illustrate those differences for the benefit of enthusiasts who would like to return their Jeeps to factory-original specification and equipment in every respect The wartime Jeep continues to fascinate enthusiasts around the world, nearly eight decades after the first prototypes were built.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The SunbeamAlpine was the Rootes Groups contender for sports car sales, especially in theUSA where comparable models from other British makers were selling to whatappeared an inexhaustible market. Rootes introduced their car in 1959, andchose to distinguish it from the competition by making… it more refined, withsuch things as winding windows and a permanently-attached soft top. Prettystyling, quite different from rival models, also helped the Alpine to secure agratifyingly strong position in the market. Nevertheless,the Alpine was being made at a time when American buyers were hungry for powerand performance, and to cater for that end of the sports car market Rootesdeveloped a high-performance derivative that they called the Tiger. This soldalongside the Alpine from 1964, and central to it was an American Ford V8engine that offered more than twice the brake horsepower of the four-cylinderin the contemporary Alpine. Over the nineyears of its production, the Alpine was produced in five major variants, andwith a variety of different specifications, as Rootes gradually improved it tomeet customer expectations. The Tiger, which of course arrived later, wasproduced in two major versions, the second one using an even larger and morepowerful version of the Ford V8. Both cars wentthrough a multitude of specification changes, and this fact makes it hard forthe average owner today to determine what the original specification of anyindividual car would have been. The purpose of this book is to identify theminutiae of the changes that were made on the assembly lines. Some remaincontroversial, but Simon Clays excellent photographs help to provide thevisual clarity that todays enthusiasts need to achieve an accurate andsatisfying restoration. The Sunbeam Alpine was the Rootes Groups contender for sports car sales, especially in the USA where comparable models from other British makers were selling to what appeared an inexhaustible market.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Born In London, the son of a successful builder and developer, Mike Thorne gravitated to agriculture in his teens and soon became familiar with the tractors then used on the land, having a particular admiration for the revolutionary grey Ferguson, with its unique three-point hydraulic linka…ge for mounting machinery. At this time he also, if asked, would construct modest buildings for local farmers, and this activity grew from being a sideline into a major business, involving large industrial buildings as well as ones for agricultural use.In the 1980s his love of tractors moved him to start acquiring examples of many makes, and over time he bought more than 100, before a change of direction saw him reduce the collection to only Ferguson and Massey Ferguson models, to house which he designed and constructed a fascinating pair of showrooms, open to the public by appointment and well known to tractor enthusiasts.In this book he writes about all the tractors he has owned, making an absorbing account of a great passion, with nearly all the tractors illustrated. He has written three books on Ferguson and Massey Ferguson tractors for Herridge & Sons, all of them now standard works.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. In the 1950s and '60s the British motorcycle industry was at its postwar peak, with its large-capacity high-performance bikes in strong demand all over the world. AJS/Matchless, BSA, Norton, Royal Enfield and Triumph were all making 100mph-plus big twins, with the king of them all, at least… into the 1950s, being the mighty1000cc Vincents, while among the ton-up singles were the BSA Gold Star and the Velocette Venom and Thruxton.In this book veteran motorcycle writer Steve Wilson reviews the top-of-the-line bikes of all these manufacturers, first giving an introduction to the motorcycling scene in the period, with a particular look at the emergence of the Rockers, the black-leather too-fast-to-live-too-young-to-die bikers who developed a culture all their own, inspired indirectly by Marlon Brando behaving badly on his Triumph Thunderbird in the banned-in-Britain 1953 movie The Wild One. Then the motorcycle makers are dealt with alphabetically, with their big bikes described in detail and their performance, handling, strengths and weaknesses discussed.In addition to a wide selection of archive photographs, specially commissioned colour photography features examples of the outstanding bikes of the period: AMC/Matchless CSR 650 twins and their Norton Atlas-engined 'Hybrid' siblings, BSA A7SS 500, Gold Star singles, AIO Super Rocket and Rocket Gold Star 650 twins, Norton SS 500/600/650 twins, Velocette Venom and Thruxton 500, Royal Enfield Constellation 700 twin, Triumph pre-unit 500 and 650 twins and unit Bonneville 650, and finally the Vincent 1000 vee-twin.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Inspired by the success of the Ford Mustang "pony car" in the USA, Ford UK launched the Capri - "The Car You Always Promised Yourself" in 1969 and it was an instant hit, with its long bonnet, sleek 2+2 coupe body, and low stance. For 1974 Ford launched the Capri II, with a new smooth body s…tyle, engines ranging from 1300 to 3000cc, and a plush Ghia version of the 3-litre model. In 1978 came the Capri Mk3 with yet more refinement and a four-headlamp nose.These classic Fords now have an almost fanatical following, supported by some very active owner's clubs.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Few marques inspire such enthusiasm as Alfa Romeo, and among its most celebrated jewels are undoubtedly its coupes and spiders, the sportiest members of an already sporty Alfa family. This book tells the full story of Alfa's two-door cars in the post-war era. It starts with the achingly han…dsome 6C 2500 and coachbuilt 1900s, followed by the glorious Giulietta Sprint, Spider and SZ. Then comes the host of Giulia models, from Bertone's Sprint GT and Pininfarina's Duetto to the racing GTA and TZ. Add in some rare V8s - 33 Stradale and Montreal - plus the Alfetta GT and the monstrous SZ/RZ, and Alfa's rich heritage is indisputable. It's all clearly detailed by a true authority on Italian cars, Chris Rees, editor of Auto Italia.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Until now there has been no in-depth book about the Austin 12/4. This most worthy of cars epitomised Herbert Austins philosophy that his cars must demonstrate longevity, robust construction, sound engineering and represent good value for money.Here we have the story behind the models introd…uction, contemporary press reports, early advertisements, from the first brochures issued up to 1934-35, the various body styles available. Those which were exported as chassis to New Zealand and Australia and then bodied locally are also included. The taxicabs have a section to themselves, as does the different coachwork available from various coachbuilders including the work they undertook during the war.When many cabs dating from the thirties were pensioned off in the early fifties, they took on many other roles, and Jim details some of them. Separate chapters are reserved for 12/4s which have earned their own special place in the Austin Twelves history; these include Peggy, the cab featured in the film Carry on Cabby, and Gumdrop, the tourer immortalised by the late Val Biro.The Austin 12/4 has survived in respectable numbers, and if you are wondering why, Jims book will leave you in no doubt. Everything you need to know about the Heavy 12/4 Austin, including stories of restorations, is in this book.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The Land Rover was a huge success for its makers right from the start in 1948, when it was introduced as a product to keep the Rover factories busy in the difficult economic times that followed the Second World War. Developed with a speed that was remarkable even for the relatively unsophis…ticated vehicles of those days, it was regularly updated in both major and minor ways over the next five years as improvements be-came necessary or suggested themselves.It is the minutiae of those improvements - some intended to simplify build procedures and others to give the customers a better product - that lie at the heart of this book. For owners and enthusiasts who aim to restore an 80-inch model to its original, ex-factory specification, its pages aim to demystify the huge succession of changes that were made on the assembly lines, wherever possible not only recording what happened but also why.With the aid of Simon Clay's photography of some superb examples of the marque, correct details are shown on both complete vehicles and on some under restoration to give the dedicated enthusiast the knowledge needed for an accurate and satisfying restoration. In this book, enthusiast and leading Land Rover historian James Taylor is your guide to the multiple changes in specification that affected the 80-inch Land Rovers built between 1948 and 1953 and continue to excite debate among restorers today. The Land Rover was a huge success for its makers right from the start in 1948, when it was introduced as a product to keep the Rover factories busy in the difficult economic times that followed the Second World War.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. When the LandRover entered production in 1948, its manufacturers had designed it as aversatile platform a basically-equipped vehicle that could be adapted inmultiple ways to meet the needs of its owners. The very first example displayedon a motor show stand, at Amsterdam in April 1948, was…not a standard vehicleat all but had been adapted to turn it into a mobile welder. In the yearsthat followed, specialist companies flocked to create all kinds ofspecial-purpose adaptations of the basic vehicle, and before long its makerswere having to make major decisions about whether they could honour thestandard warranty on a Land Rover that had been modified by one of theseaftermarket companies. They solved the problem by introducing a Land RoverApproval scheme, under which they would examine and test an example of aconversion and would then agree to honour the vehicle warranty if theconversion met their standards. Even then, someconversions were put on the market without going through the formal approvalscheme, and buyers simply took the associated risk. Between these unauthorisedconversions and the factory-approved ones, a vast array of different types wascreated, and for enthusiasts today these have a very special appeal of theirown. The aim of thisbook is to catalogue those conversions, to provide both helpful backgroundinformation and to help in their identification. It cannot claim to beexhaustive, but it is certainly the most complete illustrated catalogue yetcompiled on the subject. Illustrated with pictures from the originalmanufacturers and with many others showing modern survivors, it is a colourfuland enjoyable guide to this branch of Land Rover history.

When the firstMG Midget appeared at the 1928 London Motor Show few would have thought that itwould be the car to save the recently established marque from closure, a fatethat affected many others during the depression that followed the 1929 WallStreet Crash.

Rightfrom the start, sales of the M-type Midget looked promising and soon eclipsedthose of the larger MGs.
