Re: 'Standard Guide to American Muscle Cars'
Stephano, did you purchase this book? Is it currently available? What is the representative for the '69 Yenko Camaro & the Deuce? Jim

Re: 'Standard Guide to American Muscle Cars'
Are you serious? I saw the older edition and it was once of the worst ones I've ever seen!
My favorite book, despite some mistakes here and there, is Muscle Car Chronicle. Motor City Muscle also ranks up there. Diego

Re: 'Standard Guide to American Muscle Cars'
My all time favorite book is American Muscle by Randy Leffingwell. The one with the 69 Green Motion Camaro on the cover. Most of the cars in the book were from the Otis Chandler collection. What ever happened to that collection? I see some of our members own some cars from that collection??

Re: 'Standard Guide to American Muscle Cars'
Jim,
Yes,I purchased it. The Yenko Deuce looks similar to this months feature car sans the mag wheels. The main reason I purchased it is that there is a nice picture of a familiar/similar Dover White Double COPO which is near and dear to my heart. The Daytona Yenko and Blue RS ZL1 are also familiar as well as are a few others. The books mentioned by shor and Diego are much better and in a different league in my opinion, but have been around for years and I have both in my library. I just had never seen this particular book. The author is still trying to figure out the number of 1969 Yenko Camaros, but he is quite certain that it is between 100 and 201.

Re: 'Standard Guide to American Muscle Cars'
shor:
Several if not most of the Otis Chandler cars pictured in American Muscle are now in Kevin Suydam's collection (he goes by 'supercars' here on this bbs).
