you would think the editor would have employed a muscle car enthusiast to proof read the copy!

Sounds like you judged the book by its cover! Been there, done that.

The publisher's mission was accomplished the moment you paid for the book. Besides, an edit by a musclecar specialist would add cost to the endeavor ( endeavour for our overseas friends) and add time to the process of getting the book in stores and thus getting your money.

Bill,

This may be true. However, it is unconscionable to call
any book the "ultimate" anything if it isn't factually correct.
BTW, someone bought me a copy of this
book for Christmas. Instead of a coffee table book, I have
it in the bathroom for light reading, or extra paper when needed
