{"product_id":"9780719845109-secondhand-amilcar-the-complete-story","title":"Amilcar: The Complete Story","description":"Amilcar   The Complete Story is a journey through Amilcar's history, starting with the rebuilding of the French automobile industry out of the ashes of World War I and the opportunistic meeting of the four key people who started the company. The roller-coaster ride continues through the Roaring Twenties and hardships of the Depression years, to the last struggles to keep the Amilcar name alive.   AUTHOR: Chris Martin was born and raised in Arkley, Hertfordshire, and while still at school had a weekend job at local racing driver John Britten's garage. He then graduated through the motor trade in London, going from an apprenticeship with a main Ford dealer and a spell with an Alfa Romeo dealership to working on formula racing cars through the 1980s, followed by twelve years as a design engineer in Formula One. Since moving to Australia in 2003, he has authored various motor-related books, written for classic car websites and magazines, and is a regular contributor to Classic \u0026amp; Sports Car. He runs a vintage Amilcar, is restoring another and served for five years as President of the Australian Motorlife Museum.   270 illustrations","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49328402563291,"sku":"9780719845109-SECONDHAND","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/f1a149c1-cd37-4e41-b8a5-1001a2e583dc.jpg?v=1789750597","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780719845109-secondhand-amilcar-the-complete-story","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
