Description - The Complete Book of Classic Dodge and Plymouth Muscle by Mike Mueller

From lifelong car enthusiast and photographer Mike Mueller comes the most expansive overview of Chrysler Corporations muscle cars ever published. Its no secret that Dodge and Plymouth have been responsible for some of historys most iconic muscle cars- a resume including the immortal Road Runner, Dodge Daytona, Hemi Cuda, Challenger T/A, Charger, Super Bee, Super Bird, and GTX. These cars, often referred to as Mopars (short for Motor Parts, Chryslers parts division), defined the golden age of the American muscle car. They earned the Motor part of the Mopar name by housing the most robust engines of the period: legendary power plants like the original Firepower Hemi, the Max Wedge, the 440 Super Commando, and the famed Street Hemi. Even their small V8s, like the 340 LA-series engine that powered the AAR Cuda, are the stuff of motorhead folklore. In The Complete Book of Classic Dodge and Plymouth Muscle, theyre all here: every car and every engine from the classic era. This gorgeously illustrated work takes readers through the fifty-plus-year history of Mopar performance, from the Hemi-powered 300 Series through the last cars produced before rising gas prices, tightened emissions, and outrageous insurance rates brought the curtain down on American muscle car production. Author/photographer Mike Mueller offers an in-depth look at the specialty driving machines that have made Mopar performance an enduring part of American automotive culture for over half a century. With extensive details, specs, and spectacular photographs, Muellers book stands alone as the ultimate resource on Americas muscle cars.
