Book Description
Carlo Abarth was a performance tuning maestro. He created and modified the small displacement Italian cars of the times, adding his own tuned exhausts, cylinder heads and other components. The results were championship-winning racers and street cars. The Abarth Buyer's Guide tells the story of all the Abarth cars, including the earliest Cisitalias, Fiats, Simcas, the Zagato and Bialbero cars, Porsche Abarth Carrera, Lancias, formula cars, record-setters and the sports racers. The book is built on an impressive archive of historical photographs, many of them rare original Abarth factory pictures. The detailed text chronicles the development history of Abarth, including specifications, restoration and authenticity notes, and the Buyer's Guide star investment ratings. Author Peter Vack is an Abarth enthusiast of long standing, and he writes of the cars with passion and experience. Over a period of 13 years, the Abarth Buyer's Guide has proven to be a very dependable and useful book for those interested in Abarth cars. Now in its third printing, it remains one of the best and most comprehensive Abarth books ever written. Of that we are proud. We hope that it will continue to encourage others to do further research and create enthusiasm for the restoration of all Abarths.

Book Description
Why Not? After all, no-one had ever done it before. It would be one of the longest of all overland journeys – half way round the world, from the English Channel to Singapore. They knew that several expeditions had already tried it. Some had got as far as the desrts of Persia; a few had even reached the plains of India. But no one had managed to go on from there: over the jungle clad mountains of Assam and across northern Burma to Thailand and Malaya. Over the last 3,000 miles it seemed there were ‘just too many rivers and too few roads'. But no-one really knew … In fact, their problems began much earlier than that. As mere undergraduates, they had no money, no cars, nothing. But with a cool audacity, which was to become characteristic, they set to work – wheedling and cajoling. First, they coaxed the BBC to come up with some film for a possible TV series. They then gently persuaded the manufacturers to lend them two factory-fresh Land Rovers. A publisher was even sweet-talked into giving them an advance on a book. By the time they were ready to go, their sponsors (more than 80 of them) ranged from whiskey distillers to the makers of collapsible buckets. In late 1955, they set off. Seven months and 12,000 miles later, two very weary Land Rovers, escorted by police outriders, rolled into Singapore – to flash bulbs and champagne. Now, fifty years on, their book, ‘First Overland', is republished – with a foreword by Sir David Attenborough. After all, it was he who gave them that film.

Lancia Hyena Zagato

Book Description
"We have to recreate the enthusiasm that surrounded the SPORT models, ever a synonym for the Lancia Zagatos": in 1991 this was the brief the recent graduate Andrea Zagato gave to Marco Pedracini, a young designer who had not long been hired by prestigious coachbuilder. It was out of this fortuitous and fortunate coming together of this far-sighted idea and the enthusiasm of Paul Koot, a Dutch fan and a businessman in the automotive sector, that an icon was born, the HYENA. A beautiful car, but one practically unknown to the general public. A car that could have repeated and even surpassed the commercial and sporting success of the Lancia Delta Integrale from which it was derived. Unfortunatley just 24 examples were produced due to the debateable decision taken by the Fiat/Lancia directors of the time. Following a rapid review of the evolution of the Lancia Delta over the year, this book, written by an enthusiastic collector, examines the difficult genesis of the Hyena, from the first steps with the publication of the very first (previously unpublished) sketches and numerous photos and then follows its development, engineering and production through to its presentation at the car shows and in brochures. The book is completed by a comprehensive technical section, with the project list and the spare parts catalogue as well as an extensive photographic portrait of one particular example, N. 20. Lastly, all 24 Lancia Hyenas are examined, with the intention of reconstructing their specifications, their destination and the country in which they are jealously conserved by the enthusiast and collectors who possess a precious example.
