Custom cars and car-building techniques of the 1950's are still as popular now as they were then, if not more so. Car builders and home-based enthusiasts yearn for information on the "real" custom cars and the men who built them. Filled with car features and in-the-shop how- to sequences, this book is filled with photos and text by George Barris. The book explains tricks and techniques used to build the very sophisticated custom cars that came out of the Barris Custom Shop in Los Angeles. Full of original photographs of these world-renowned custom cars, how-to sequences, this is a part of auto history as told by a man who is still at the heart of that history. Capturing both the beauty of the cars, and George Barris' enthusiasm and delight, written by Barris himself, this is a book to delight and captivate any auto fan, and a must-have for any custom car fan!
