  2. Scotty, what about that book on sedan deliveries we talked about?

    Thanks guys, but I don't know if a station wagon follow-up is realistic at this time. I'd definitely be up for it, but Cartech calls the shots on that stuff. Besides, I already have more work than I can do these days... Thanks for supporting the authors on here. I know how much work it is to build a book.

    I assume you mean car-related books, but I saw some academic stuff on this thread as well so here is mine: ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1432585721.097797.jpg
    It currently goes for $122 on Amazon as a paperback, which is insane! It used to be a hardcover for $45.
    I pitched a book about car people to Motorbooks years ago but they turned it down. Maybe because I identified a '29 A as a '32 Ford in a photo caption?

    I guess you could say I am soon to be published. My personal goal is to have it to the publisher by 12/31. My book is a collection of stories about car guys who have found cars they sold many years ago. It has been a very fun journey researching the book.
