1973 Pontiac Trans Am Super Duty
1973 Pontiac Trans Am Super Duty
Some cars were just born to be legends. David Newhardt, author of Art of the Muscle Car, shares some of the stats on this gorgeous muscle car.

The Trans Am was a tough-looking car, with its Endura front bumper, taut sheet metal, and low, wide stance. Stuff the Super Duty 455 engine under the hood, plaster the "screaming chicken" decal on top of it, fire it up, and go trolling for Corvettes. Pontiac had considerable experience with racing engines, and it brought this knowledge to bear in developing the Super Duty 455.

Dear ASD,

Louis Klemantaski is one of history's greatest motorsports photographers. The immediacy and excitement his images evoke are unsurpassed. He worked during what is often considered racing's golden era, that period immediately just prior to WWII through the early 1970s when the sport was still the province of passion and daring, before huge budgets and massive sponsorship forever changed its tenor. Klemantaski's subjects spanned road racing, Grand Prix, and F1 competition.
KlemantaskiKlemantaski: Master Motorsports Photographer is the only book in print devoted to the photographer's full body of work. Hundreds of the best Klemantaski images have been collected to provide the only opportunity to own and enjoy his key work in a single volume. No racing or photography fan will want to miss this book!
