Just to let you all know that I have produced a 250 page plus full colour book on the LCC Rocket. Like Justin with P27 it's a self-publish and this is not going to make me any money at all....so hopefully the moderators will take pity on me as trying to get this thing published and made known has been a prize pain the backside.
Anyway, it tells the story of the car. It features all of Gordon Murray's archive, interviews with him/Chris Craft/Jay Leno/and everybody else involved and lots of special pix including commissioned shots of George Harrison's, GM's and Leno's cars.
I doubt if I will print more than 300 (I've 'sold' 50 so far, mostly to Rocket owners) and the first hundred we intend to get GM/CC to sign. It should look like Driving Ambition as we intend it to be a sister volume, not least because the same guy is designing it. It's taken 4 years to get to this point so it won't still be immediate but I'm hoping it will be later this year to tie in with the 25th anniversary of the Rocket in 2016. if anybody is interested and I'm not moderated out (like Pistonheads) please let me know through PM. ps cost is still an unknown as this will depend on copies printed but probably of the same order as Justin/P27.
