Synopsis
The lure of classic cars is undeniable, and one of the quintessential features of any classic car is the dashboard. Whether gleaning in chrome, glowing in wood or kitsch in plastic, the dashboard has always conveyed much of a car's individual design character. Through expert photography in over fifty cars, this book presents the reader with any array of luxury inventiveness, from the engine-turned metal of the 1937 Cord to the sporting pedigree of the 1953 Aston Martin DB 2/4 with its plethora of gauges and switches, controls and lights. David Holland, a collector and restorer of cars over many years, has devoted his expertise to bringing the reader a wealth of automobile experiences. Each classic dashboard is lovingly described and photographed in detail, making this a book for every enthusiast.
