The Works of General and Phyllis Wingrove - Model Engineers
Gerald A. Wingrove
Although they have usually been poles apart, the art world and the motor industry have occasionally come close together, merging the two disciplines to the benefit of both. At times the combination of an enlightened manufacturer and a truly talented stylist has produced motor cars as beautiful as anything made by man. This book deals with many of these cars, from great makers like Alfa Romeo, Bugatti, Cord, Duesenberg, and Ferrari. But it is not quite as simple as that, for the real subject of this book is not the cars themselves but the perfect miniature of them created with an engineer`s precision and jeweller`s by Gerald and Phyllis Wingrove.
