Old Man with a Hat
I just finished reading "Virgil Exner, visionary", by Peter Girst. A must read for any auto historian, especially Forward Look period fans and all Mopar folks in general. I had a hard time putting it down.
Won't hurt to expand yourself a little Gary......Nada
As interested as you are about automotive history Jeff, once you start reading it won't take long.Funny, I just got a copy a little while ago... now to find a little time.
I have two large books (and many small ones) that cover Chrysler design history and the Exner era (as well as eras before and after). I just can't get thru the Exner stuff without wretching. Fever breaks once Elwood comes aboard....brings logic back to mopar IMHO.
.
Ive parts of his bio...snipits here and there ..his "Y" job rolling protype.....he started out his career as a "colorist"......if I recall correctly?Has anybody here read Harley Earl's bio.
You'll enjoy it as much as Exner's.
