{"product_id":"american-trucks-of-the-1960s-norm-mort-9781787111721","title":"American Trucks of the 1960s","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis highly visual study covers the US and Canadian truck manufacturers that built trucks in North America in the 1960s. Canadian-built trucks were often unique, while others were built specifically for the American market. The North American truck manufacturers continued to thrive to meet the demands of the prosperity of the 1960s with fresh designs and features. These rugged, reliable trucks were capable of transcontinental commutes of goods on a regular basis, or performing delivery and construction tasks in and around cities.\u003cbr\u003eThis concise volume covers not only the histories of the major and lesser known truck manufacturers, but also the obscure, yet historically significant manufacturers such as Available, Biederman, Brown, Corbitt, Leyland Canada and others. \u003cbr\u003eComprehensive captions and supportive text combine with contemporary brochures, period literature, road test info of the day, factory photographs and over fifty colour photos of restored American trucks, to relate the importance of these historic vehicles. Detailed shots of the engines and features focus on what it was that set certain manufacturers apart in this highly competitive market. \u003cbr\u003eThis succinct, factual book on American trucking provides a nostalgic look at a significant era in North American history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Norm Mort\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1787111725\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781787111721\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Veloce Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/19\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.40h x 8.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Norm Mort","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46974645240063,"sku":"9781787111721","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f2620678-1512-4d05-a142-eedda127d6ae.jpg?v=1750875640","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/american-trucks-of-the-1960s-norm-mort-9781787111721","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
