Stacks

Staggered intake trumpets on the Big Block Chevy—the enduring signature image of the grand old "Unlimited" Can-Am series. Standing tall on the 1972 McLaren M20, these are glowing in the afternoon sun at Watkins Glen, the last-ever Can-Am won by the works team.

NOW IN STOCK: “Can-Am Cars in Detail,” from David Bull Publishing, is Pete’s third book about that epic racing series, 1966 through 1974. A lavish coffee-table volume measuring 11 by 11 inches, it takes a loving look at 22 of these stunningly fast and amazingly innovative “unlimited” sports racers as they survive today. Included are Chaparrals, Lolas, McLarens, Porsches and Shadows, plus the Caldwell, a Genie, a Ferrari, a McKee and yes, the Honker II.

Pete’s specially-written text accompanies 159 all-new and magnificent studio images by professional museum photographer (and SCCA driving champion) Peter Harholdt, with a superb overall design by Tom Morgan. The 244-page book retails for $99.95, plus shipping and CA sales tax if applicable.

The book had a successful debut at the August 2010 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion.
