Description

ISBN: 9781934709450, Author Scotty Gosson - CT-493, 144 Pages, Softbound, 1st Edition 2011. In full color

For all of us who grew up watching the world pass by from the back of a station wagon, this book touches a special chord. The same cars many would never want to be seen in are now in high demand, and it seems everyone has at least one great story involving a station wagon.

Anyone who is a fan of nostalgia can relate to the subject matter, and for those who like vintage styling and modern performance, there are plenty of great examples of upgraded vintage wagons that can (and are) driven daily.

The station wagon was born in America, and stood as an iconic vehicle design for decades. Countless cars served countless families a functional transportation for the better part of the twentieth century from when they became commonplace in the post—World War II era to the 1980s when the minivan (and later, the SUV) replaced them The fond memories and stylish designs have contributed to wagons regaining some of their earlier popularity, and they never lost their functionality. For the many enthusiasts who love vintage and classic cars, station wagons offer an offbeat (and often budget-friendly) means of enjoying the hobby without sacrificing the comfort an convenience of more-modern vehicles.

Author Scotty Gosson is not only an admirer of vintage statio wagons, but an owner of one as well. He fully understands their appea and lovingly reviews a bumper crop of some of the most interestih' wagons on America's roads today. The group includes both restored'
and modified cars, with all of them sharing more than just ample interior space. Th. e 'fun, cool, and often overlooked vehicles are coming into their own, and bring smiles to the faces of all who see them. America's Coolest Station Wagons includes interviews with the owners of the cars in the photos.

The wagon-based smiles are not exclusive or rare, unlike the cars themselves.
