Another great Camaro book from CarTech. Extensive coverage of Camaro concept cars which prototyped design changes for each generation of Camaros. A great selection of photos and a fine design history of the Camaro. ( )Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Lots of really nice photos and lots of details to look at. Very good book. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I expected to read a book about the Camaro’s model change history. The author, Scott Kolecki, took a more thought-provoking path, however. He addressed the history of the Chevrolet Camaro’s development team’s efforts as evidenced by the concept cars they entered into nationwide auto shows; some of whose concepts were and remain popular. Each concept team development leader sought out the best car designers to flesh out and add to concept ideas. After a show, the team would note how the show’s car buff participants accepted the concept car’s various features and then incorporated the most popular into an upcoming Camaro model year; or they discarded and replaced them with something the auto press felt was more needed. The first Camaro pony car came out in 1968 in response to the 1964 Ford Mustang. Chevy was caught flat-footed by the sales success of the Mustang and spared no expense in financing the Camaro designer team’s efforts. Throughout the years, Camaro’s success waivered in response to Chevrolet’s profitability or lack thereof. Currently, there are no plans to sell the Camaro beyond 2024 as the industry is moving toward power train electrification. Enthusiasts remain hopeful, however. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. My, oh my. I had no idea how many Camaro Concept cars there were. Some gorgeous, some not. Nicely covered here by Scott Kolecki. I was surprised to learn that Bill Mitchell hated the first version Camaro (my favorite). My one real complaint about the book is the amount of quoting from other Camaro books. That got to be annoying. Probably couldn't be helped, but still. All in all, a fine history of the development of the car.Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Camaro Concept Cars: Developing Chevrolet’s Pony Car by Scott Kolecki is a well researched and written gem. It contains many details that I was not aware of and therefore not covered in other books or articles I have read. I highly recommend this book for anybody interested in Camaro’s or concept cars.

Learn about the creation of every generation of Chevrolet's pony car! For more than 50 years, the Chevrolet Camaro has been an indelible part of the modern automotive landscape. Since its introduction in 1967, Chevrolet's immensely popular pony car has redefined American automotive styling by setting the bar and then raising it with the introduction of each generation. How did the Camaro become one of the most celebrated automobiles of all time? What was its origin? What factors contributed to its creation and continued evolution through periods of economic uncertainty? How, when so many other cars have come and gone, has the Camaro survived and flourished? Automotive historian Scott Kolecki explores those questions in Camaro Concept Cars: Developing Chevrolet's Pony Car, as he introduces the men and women who created Chevrolet's successful sports car. This book looks at the factors that contributed to its evolution through six distinct generations and explores the concept and design prototypes that gave rise to the production models that we know and love today. This is the ultimate book for anyone who has owned (or dreamed of owning) a Camaro as well as for the countless enthusiasts around the globe who continue to celebrate and share the car's rich heritage with future generations.
