Da dies mit allen internetfähigen Geräten geht, ist die Methode noch einfacher als der Abgleichen mit einem QR-Code.

Charles Montier was an engineer, mechanic and Ford dealer in France who improved the ubiquitous Ford model T for the French market. He also modified and raced Fords in the 1920s and '30s with some success for himself, his son and his racing customers. This is the story of how growing up around the family blacksmith's forge and his early training led him to being known as the "Sorcier de la Ford" translated as the Sorcerer or Wizard. The Ford model T was not the obvious choice to race in the first running of the world famous 24-hour race at Le Mans but not only did Charles take on the challenge but he finished in a credible 14th place. He was even more successful in hill climb events in France and Belgium and then contested Grands Prix races in Europe against the best known names of the day. This book aims to bring him the belated fame he so richly deserved.

I started writing for myself for two reasons. Firstly, to help me to cope through a very stressful time - my wife's severe illness. I did this mainly through poetry. The second was to share with my friends and acquaintances my motorcycling adventures.It was not until I joined Stroud Writers that I started to develop the skills and techniques of a storyteller. Soon after joining the group, they encouraged me to write fiction, something I always had difficulty with. However, within 16 months of joining, I had written and self-published my first novel. It certainly helped that I wrote on a subject I was passionate about, classic British motorcycles. In successive years, I had another four novels and a booklet of poetry to my name.But there was more to my repertoire than just writing novels and poetry. I found it just as rewarding as an author to write short stories. Indeed, writing a short story, especially when restrictions are given, like a word limit, using particular words, or writing on a specific subject, has made me much more disciplined, and I find the task much more of a challenge. It is also an opportunity for me to demonstrate that I am more than just a one-trick pony.I have been collecting these stories for more than a dozen years, but it was not until a friend suggested that I should publish them, that this book came about.

In the early 1960s Innocenti introduced the series three Slimstyle Lambretta with its stunning looks, and innovative engineering making it a world leader. The TV 175 was seen as the pinnacle of that design and in no way could it be bettered, but some thought different. The motorway age had dawned meaning vehicles with greater power and speed were now in vogue but could this include the Lambretta. Despite a reluctance to join the race Innocenti finally gave in when in 1963 they produced the TV 200 the most powerful Lambretta to date. Throughout the rest of the decade, the 200cc Lambretta continued to evolve through the SX and GP models creating an ever-lasting legacy. For the first time all three models the TV 200, SX 200, and GP 200 are thoroughly examined and compared against each other Contents included: The full history of each model: Technical analysis: Transition and crossover details: Performance comparison

Paying homage to the artistic genius of Joseph Figoni and the beautiful bodies he designed and built for Delahaye. This book shows the evolution of Joseph Figoni's creative process, illustrated through his pen and pencil drawings and designs. He also used clay models and true-scale wire mock-ups mounted on the chassis, but only his drawings and a small wooden model survived. Today, modern photographs, many by renowned automotive photographer Michael Furman, allow us to appreciate the unique features of these decades-old cars, now restored to their original splendor. In addition, the notebooks, vintage photographs, and historical documents in the Figoni archive help tell the full story of many cars. This book includes over fifty Delahayes in detail, each with striking Figoni coachwork, and many drawings, several never published before. Claude Figoni, Joseph's son, provides a vivid account of his father's humble beginnings, his growth as a craftsman and artist, his difficulties during World War II, and his eventual recognition as France's premier coachbuilder. Figoni on Delahaye also includes Richard Adatto's personal recollections of his encounters with car owners and admirers, of finding cars long believed lost, and of meeting restorers and historians whose passion for Figoni-designed cars equals his own.
