Description

Each garage is unique and shows the particular passions of each classic car or motorcycle collector. This work includes profiles of celebrity garages, such as Jay Leno's. The garage is more than just a place to store cars. It is a place to work, hang out, and show off the vehicles that are an integral part of car lovers' lifestyles. This lushly illustrated, large-format gift book caters to America's fascination with the garage and looks at 25 of the most incredible garages in the United States. The list of garages compiled by author Phil Berg is a mix of over-the-top garages built by some of the most well-known names in the auto industry, including Bob Lutz, Ken Gross, Brock Yates, Pat Ganahl, and Bruce Meyer. Amazing garages from Peter Mullen's fantastic underground garage full of Delahaye roadsters and famous celebrity garages are also featured in full color detail.
