Strand Notes

Placing the reader behind the wheel of over fifty cars, this unusual book presents an indelible array of dashboards through the ages. From the raw simplicity of the Austin 7 to the magnificent opulence of the Duesenberg, from the functional cockpit of a Mercedes Grand Prix racer to the fully equipped cabin of an Astin Martin DB2/4, each dashboard has been photographed in full-color and described in detail. Whether gleaming metal, polished wood or padded leather, in asingle-seater racing car or a family saloon, this is where function meets form, ergonomics meets style. For every classic car enthusiast. With a Glossary. Color photography. 224p.
