Book excerpt: The Citroën DS was selected by motoring experts and the public as the most beautiful classic car of the twentieth century. French designer Flaminio Bertoni's 'Goddess' is considered a work of art, a sculpture on wheels. Some even called it the Sydney Opera House of motoring. Released in October 1955 in Paris, France, the first DS19 to arrive in Australia stunned onlookers at the Sydney Royal Easter Show in 1956. Its most notable innovation was the suspension, allowing the car to go 'up and down'. But there were many more outstanding features that made it such a seductive car. Many DS models came to this country from 1956 to 1975. As Citroën celebrates a hundred years since its launch, it is fitting to record the untold stories of the importers, distributors, owners, mechanics, racing drivers, restorers, artists and many more behind the story of the DS in Australia. With over 750 photographs, 120 original illustrations and exhaustive research, the authors have given voice to a definitive history of the Citroën DS in this country, capturing the essence of this stunning design and engineering marvel.

Book excerpt: Great collector cars are still out there--just waiting to be found! Sadly, there is very little reality in reality TV. That wouldn't be so bad except for the fact that these shows are the only TV shows for the barn-find collector car aficionado. Barn Find Road Trip is the antidote to all the manufactured collector "reality" shows. It's a real-world, barn-find banzai run in which auto archaeologist Tom Cotter, his car collector pal Brian Barr, and photographer Michael Alan Ross embarked on a 14-day collector-car-seeking adventure with no predetermined destinations. It's barn-find freestyle! Roaming the Southeast, they documented their day-to-day car search in photos and through stories and interviews. This trip is absolutely real and the same kind of junket any gearhead with the skills, knowledge, and time can undertake. Cotter and company hit the road in Cotter's 1939 Ford Woody, the kind of car that opened doors and started the conversations that revealed where interesting cars were squirreled away. The result? The discovery of over 1,000 collector cars and some of the most amazing barn-find stories Cotter has yet unearthed, all accompanied by Ross' evocative photography. If you love stories of automotive adventure, this is the book for you!
