Pontiac GTO 50 Years: The Original Muscle Car Hardcover – January 6, 2015

I really enjoy this book and I am so glad I bought it. It is very well written and has lots of great photos. I am a fan of GTO's and I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves GTO's and pontiac. For anyone who want's to know how the muscle car era started this book is a great starting point, and there are other great books written about GTO's also. Just by reading this book it will take you back in time and make you wonder what it was like back then.

Nice book. Lots of good pics and info about the GTO and some competing cars.

The book has an excellent array of photographs, both of production cars, and styling exercises, as well as a fair amount of technical information. It also has a section dedicated to the latest generation of "Australian GTOs"....

My guy is a Pontiac collector and this book made for a great gift. Honestly, what do you get a man who owns 12 classic Pontiac’s??? The answer ... a cool book on the crap he already has. I think it kinda reinforces his confidence in all the money he has wasted ... I mean invested in the cars.

Well written, nice pics, fresh, not the same old ones. Good buy for the GTO guy who has all the books.

I thought the book was pretty good, with a nice initial presentation. It has good coverage of the '60s models. Even though I'm a 1969 guy, I thought the 73-74 sections were treated as an after-thought. The 1974 has 8 pages of pictures of the same car, yet not a single interior, engine compartment, trunk or under carriage shot. I know the 1974 body-style, interior, and options were more varied than shown. For that matter, the engine compartment shots were weak book-wide, unless you're only looking for tri-powers or ram-air. I would have liked a few more interior detail pictures. As always, the greatest emphasis is placed on the 04 GTO than the combined 05-06. On the brighter side, all the cars used were factory original… no aftermarket add-ons that other authors include. Holmstrom and Newhardt seem to have a great grasp of the Great-One.

Good pics. Good info. Somewhat jaded outlook on GM. Pro-GTO!

Great book! The contents went beyond it's expectations and it remains in my personal baby boomer time capsule book collections.

Purchased as a gift..,Receipiant was pleased ..

Didn't do his research on 74's and just copied word for word what he wrote in a previous book he wrote.
