Hot Rod Pin-ups Summary

Hot Rod Pin-ups by David Perry

Hot rods and hot girls you'd never bring home to mother - titterlating & kitch For as long as young men have been channeling, chopping, and hopping up rods and customs, women - whether loyal girlfriends or trouble-seeking bad girls - have been an integral to their scene. In this unique portfolio evoking great 1950s pin-up artists like Vargas and Eivgren, talented photographer David Perry depicts models in and out of cherry-picked rods and customs wearing painstakingly chosen period dress and hairstyles. More than 100 photos present these modern-day pin-ups under three themes: Garage, Cruising, and Race. In addition, essays explore each topic and are also accompanied by pulp novel covers, period mags, and ads that place the photography in a historical context. Captions identify the car owners, photo location, and, where appropriate, interesting car specs and histories.
