Camaro (David Newhardt) - First Gear Series

By: David Newhardt .

When Chevrolet set out to out-muscle the Mustang, it came up with the Camaro. That was 1967, and the Camaro turned out to be more than a pony car par excellence. It was a muscle car for the ages, the quintessential American car. On the eve of this classic's newest incarnation, the first Camaro of the twenty-first century, this book offers an exhilarating, photo-filled look at Camaro through the decades.

Packed with information, the lavishly illustrated volume devotes a chapter to each generation of the Camaro, providing performance stats, trivia, and much more, and page after page of full color studio and action shots of each model—the stars of the muscle car era, the RS, SS Z/28, IROC-Z; the models that jumpstarted a new era of American performance in the 1980s; and the next wildly anticipated generation. A perfect reference and resource for fans of the Camaro and American muscle, the book is also a fittingly handsome celebration of an icon of American performance.
