Motor City Dream Garages

Enlarge Photo

This Christmas, purchase the book that takes you on an intimate tour of 20 incredible garages throughout Detroit. In "Motor City Dream Garages," journalist Rex Roy gives you an intimate look at collections held by garages like Henry Ford's Fair Lane in Dearborn (referred to as "The First Dream Garage"), The Mopar Cathedral, the Big Red Barn, and The Racer's Garage.

Each garage is visually and verbally unveiled, detailing stunning automotive collections inside the structures purpose built for them. Included are the garages of legends such as Bob Lutz, Larry Smith (chairman of the Meadow Brook Concours), and Kip Ewing (engineer behind the Ford GT).

With more than just a detailed tour through impressive automotive collections, Rex Roy provides the reader with the history of the dream garage right down to the very first one. Whether those on your gift list are automotive enthusiasts or historians, Roy's great writing and sparkling photographs will make for great reading and likely lead to a fair amount of daydreaming and drooling as well.

To purchase the book or just have a closer look, head over to RexRoy.net. The book retails for $34.95.--Colin Mathews

"Motor City Dream Garages"

My wife got me this book for Christmas on your recommendation and I love it. 300 pictures of awesome garages filled with every car I ever wanted and then some. The best coffee table book I own!
