| book description |

Whatâ€™s this car? Think you know it? Take another look; is it really what you remember? The 1960s is regarded as the cradle of the classic car, but these are the tantalising ones that got away â€¦ An astonishing number of fascinating models have sidestepped nostalgia to lurk in the underground carpark of our collective memory, as youâ€™ll rediscover inside with these sixty missing marvels. Glorious pictures help relay the era, and a sprinkling of rare show cars demonstrates the Neverland of contemporary car-design thinking. In this turbulent decade, brave new engine technology was championed and then rejected; design trends suddenly exploded; and car buyers became unpredictable. The cars in this book sometimes suffered as a result â€“ although some of them were just plain odd! Lost Cars of the 1960s is the final part of award-winning author Giles Chapmanâ€™s Lost Cars trilogy, which records the unsung sideshows of motoring history from around the world.
