Beautiful Pictorial---Chaparral : Can-Am & Prototype Race Cars (Motorbooks Classics)softcover.

Beautiful Pictorial, mostly B & W, There is a nice Color Section, Not much Reading, But Is a good Book With tons of Pictures, As most Friedman books it is very well laid out.A must for any Chevy Fan!(Powered by Chevy!) and Any Texas roadrunner fan(Chaparral!)

My favorite CAN AM car of all time!

I was one of the fortunates that got to see the Chaparrals race! I never forgot it and forty years later they look as modern as they did in the 1960s. Lots of neat photos, but unfortunately, none in color. Sigh. I don't know why so many motor books are chock full of B & W! I love these cars, so no matter. Still recommended!

A PERSONAL ACCOUNT OF HISTORY OF THE MARQUE

Being a child of the sixties and growing up as a fan of sports car racing during that era, this book truly brings the personal side of Jim Hall and his Chaparrals to the fore-front. Jim Freidman does an exceptional job in his writing as well as candid photography of the racing team during that glorious period. With quotes from Hap Sharp, Phil Hill, Roger Penske, as well as scores of other great drivers, the reader becomes a part of racing history we will never see again.Thank you Jim Hall for sharing your memories!

Great Pictures

I have been a fan for years. It is always wonderful to have this book out on my coffe table when I have my auto enthusiast friends over for something or other.. It is always a hit..

Excellent photos in an easy to read format

Excellent photos combines with an easy to read text. This book provides a good background and is a must for any Can Am or Jim Hall fan. If you can only have one Chaparral book Falconer/Nye version is preferred
