Show Rod Model Kits: A Showcase of America's Wildest Model Kits by Scotty Gosson is a must-have reference book published by CarTech for collectors and enthusiasts of classic show rod model kits. Written from a collector's perspective rather than a builder's, this volume explores the golden era of show rod culture that swept America in the 1960s and 1970s.

What's Inside:

• An illustrated history of show rod modeling tracing the hobby's origins and evolution through the 1960s
• Coverage of over 100 plastic model kits in 1/24th, 1/25th, and 1/32nd scale
• Profiles of highly collectible and iconic kits including early show cars such as the Lincoln Futura, Leva Car, and Outlaw
• Chapter on the formation of early model car companies and their most notable kit releases
• Hundreds of photographs of classic show rod kits printed on glossy paper
• 159 pages of in-depth content for collectors and hot rodding historians

Authored by noted hot rodding historian Scotty Gosson — a longtime contributor to Hot Rod, Car Craft, Rod & Custom, and Hot Rod DeLuxe — this book is a companion to his earlier title America's Wildest Show Rods of the 1960s & 1970s. Whether you're a seasoned collector, a nostalgic builder, or simply a fan of America's wildest automotive era, this CarTech publication is a fun and informative addition to any automotive library.
