I know there were some delays in the production of the book. If I were a betting man, I would guess it was do to a certain perfectionist... In any case, the book is worth the wait. I had Silva and Joyo in the office today and they both flipped out on it as well. So, it's not just me. This thing is amazing.
I was really impressed with the quality, layout and scope of content. Definitely one to have for your library!
Does anyone know if the RJ book has the same 75 cars that were in the Tony Thacker "32 Ford Deuce" reprint from a couple of years ago or are there some different ones?
There can only be one list of the 75 most significant deuces of all time. So- it's the same cars- but from what I was told- more pics & more story. From the website: We devote six pages to each of the 75 most significant 1932 hot rods as selected for the 75th Anniversary of the 1932 Ford display at the 2007 Grand National Roadster Show.
I ordered one for my husband, created a lie to keep him from ordering one....only to be surprised with a text from him stating that he still had time to order one! So I had to ruin the surprise and tell him it was already ordered. Now he gets to impatiently wait for his copy.....and then I'm gunna take it from him and hang it from the rafters. When are they due to ship?!?
ordered mine back on April 28th, waiting impatiently also... darn it Ryan .... I want my copy !!! now
gee RYAN can you autogragh yours and send it to me? i'll gladly pay you tuesday for a HAMB.... er signed Deuce book today .... EVERY TIME THE DOGS BARK WHILE OUTSIDE I THINK ITS THE THE DELIVERY OF THIS BOOK HATE BEING AWAY DURING HEAVY RAINS THINKING THIS IS SITTING OUT IN THE WEATHER ... I NEED IT NOW ...
Just ordered mine....but very disappointed that they wouldn't honor my Alliance discount on the book.
Am waiting on 4 numbered copies.....no, not all for me. Well, not really waiting....I know they'll get here. When they do, they do. Thanks for the preview Ryan.
Ordered mine back in April. Time to put on the Carly Simon tune "Anticipation". I think that there is a limited number (3,000 ?). Order jnow before the rest wind up on *bay as "collector's" items.
Also can't wait to receive my copy. It will share a shelf with my complete Mark Morton Hop Up set. By the way I have the first five M.M. issues of Hop Up for sale for $75.00 plus shipping.
Got my copy today....worth the wait...was cool to see the Phil Kendrick Tudor, unfinished, which is owned by my friends Joey and Frank DeMarco. Of course the Neal East, Don Van Hoff and Lynn Yakel five windows made my heart beat faster.... ..... Very nice book!
Me too! Damn, waiting this long is just getting to be irritating. I know, I know the wait will be worth it, but damn...
I ordered mine when they first put out the word - seems like ancient history now. I know what TRJ are like with delivery, but I REALLY hope it arrives before Christmas becuase it would be something the kids could wrap up for me before I open the package. Well, that's a nice thought anyway.
