Award winning photographer Ken Stepnell, who brought us one of the most sought after collections of Australian collector car photographs, is back with a completely up-to-date and revised edition of Collector Cars of Australia. This rare collection shows the variety of cars in Australia across all makes from Dodge to Rolls Royce, Rover to Chevrolet, Toyota to Ford and of course General Motors Holden. Organised into eras, the book is a showcase of car manufacturers. From the veteran and Edwardian era, to vintage cars of 1919-1930, classic cars of 1931-1945 and the post classic cars of 1946-1960s, the book is packed with more than 1,100 pictures of vehicles, many carefully restored to their original glory. And this edition includes never-before-seen cars restored to perfection. Respected photographer Ken Stepnell has spent several years capturing these golden oldies, travelling across the country to automobile clubs and fairs. More than 300 pages display the glory of Australia's collector cars with many photographs never before seen.

Comments about Collector Cars of Australia:

This is a book for recognition of makes and models driven in Australia over past decades.
It covers imports from around the world and discusses variants that emerged from Australian factories.
Not technically accurate on all occassions, more of a compilation of articles previously written and hence suffers from factual errors in captions and labels.
