Re: I can\'t believe this auction
Bob and others..
I wish i could tell you otherwise...
I suppose one could be scanned etc...if anybody would get on to it....!
If you do think you can spare that kind of amount on a book, buy it !
Amongst GT40 books, you will not get dissapointed !
It is the market of demand and availability...
These were not printed in massive numbers either...
At 464 pages.~8.7" x 12" x 1.2", it is also my personal favourite.
Also depending if you like to read "politics", race programme, old same news, good pictures of old or new shot negatives or detalings in text or pics...etc...
There are many books covering different aspects of the whole GT40 programme.
But not that many devoted intierly on GT40ies.
Most tell the same stories, but sometimes ad interesting readings or pics.
Depend on how hard you want to dig into the matter.
After a while you get to a sort of dead end, and then you can almost just widen your collection with more as in several instead of more knowledge(reading)...(Books that is)
But you can grow with pics and other stuff, wich also tells you a lot !
There are a few high priced ones out there, wich in my opinion are way over rated.
Not so much in the pricing of them, but the content ...
But it also depends on your personal likings and knowledge.
And how this GT40 thing excites you !
I my self, don´t give to much about the politics behind the Total performance programme or such...wich are written about a lot.
I am more into the specific cars and developments.
But then again, one picture in an otherwise useless book to you -might save the day for you ...or somebody else..
That´s the beauty of it, or ?...
