Production cars and some interesting prototypes are described with their technical details, strong points and weaknesses. While some Czechoslovakian cars were ground-breaking, others were more conservative. However, they were mostly well built and reliable, admittedly with some sad exceptions. The more important models are compared with their British and continental European counterparts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book contains a number of photographs, both originals and those showing restored cars. While more than 90% of the book focuses on the technical side, Cars From My Old Country also summarises the historic and political context in which these cars were designed and built.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Miroslav Synek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1800314140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781800314146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Generation Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/24\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.75h x 8.25w x 0.75d","brand":"Miroslav Synek","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43993702924543,"sku":"9781800314146","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_67c61491-01d4-4c69-8859-a66d976e7be7.jpg?v=1683325825","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cars-from-my-old-country-miroslav-synek-9781800314146","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
