Veteran And Vintage Cars

Veteran and Vintage Cars (1970) by Cecil Gibson – Troy Model Club Series – Sold by Crappy Old Books

Step into the glorious past of motoring history with Veteran and Vintage Cars by Cecil Gibson, a charming little gem from the Troy Model Club Series that celebrates the days when cars had character, class, and more brass than sense. Originally published in 1970, this lovingly illustrated guide is part nostalgia trip, part educational snapshot, and entirely fuelled by the kind of old-school enthusiasm that smells faintly of petrol, pipe smoke, and slightly damp wool.

Gibson’s passion for pre-war motors shines through every page as he introduces iconic makes and models from the dawn of motoring through to the 1930s—with simplified technical drawings, short histories, and just enough detail to make you feel smart at vintage car rallies (or at least smug in your shed).

Condition: Lightly foxed, a bit tired around the staples, but still proudly motoring along. Perfect for petrolheads, model-makers, or anyone who knows the difference between a De Dion and a Darracq.

Crappy Old Books: Because new books just don’t smell right.

Nice hardback with good dust jacket. 62 pages.
