Hot4S.com (AUS), December 2006 "If you're coffee table is covered in crud and old Playboys with their pages stuck together, boy have we found something special to get those passers-by exclaiming 'oh' and 'ah'. "Robert Williams comes to us with inordinate fame in the hot-rod world, specifically for his skill livin' everything rod. To say the man's hot-rod mad is an understatement, and like the back of the book reads, 'hot rods, motorsickles, carnies... hippies and punks, Bob has spent a lifetime simmering waist-deep in a spicy gonzo weirdness, and now he's serving up a big bowl of his crazy life to you, oh hapless reader.' "Yes, it's weird, but it's also wonderful looking into a man so immersed in roddin' culture, and if ever you've thrown a spanner around or simply looked longingly at that rat rod passin' by, you're sure to get some kind of enjoyment from this book.

Synopsis
An illustrated autobiography, putting Williams' work in the context of his hot rod background, and telling of the wild formative years behind one of America's biggest underground artists., Robert Williams' life and work have proven difficult to describe. Who better then, to put Williams into words and pictures than the man himself-as he does in this illustrated autobiography of his life in hot rods. Here, for the first time, Robert Williams presents his extraordinary body of work in the context of his hot rod background, in the process relating his impossibly wild formative years and his gradual establishment as one of America's most influential underground artists. Born in 1943 and raised in Alabama and Albuquerque, Williams eventually gravitated to Southern California and the Chouinard Art Institute, but not before immersing himself in the country's nascent youth culture of hot rods, rock 'n' roll, and bowling alley rumbles. He recounts a boyhood spent in drive-in theaters and dirt tracks, honing a life and a style that had little to do with the world of square day jobs he entered after leaving Chouinard in 1963, when, through sheer happenstance, an unemployment agency handed him a job as art director at the studio of his hero, Ed ""Big Daddy"" Roth. Along with tales from his time at Roth studios--which resulted in his famous Roth ads for Hot Rod magazine, not to mention several infamous run-ins with the Hell's Angels--Williams demythologizes the 1950s, recalls his association with Zap Comix and R. Crumb, and reflects on today's retro rodders and his own hot rods. Illustrated throughout with photographs from Williams' personal collection as well as paintings and illustrations, this is a life portrait as only Robert Williams could do it., Graduating from the Chouinard Art Institute, Robert Williams joined Ed Roth at Roth Studios, and established his reputation as the world's foremost Hot Rod illustrator. Illustrated with personal photographs, paintings and sketches, this is his larger-than-life story.

    A great value! 2 kits for the price of one. One Monogram and one AMT/ERTL kit. The seller combined shipped them both the day of purchase for a very reasonable cost. Both kits were delivered safely, carefully packaged and as described in the listing and photos. Used but more like new in factory sealed boxes in great condition. I'm very pleased with my purchase and I highly recommend the seller. Thank you!

    SELLER IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. THE ITEM I PURCHASED WAS AS DESCRIBED, AND EVEN NICER THAN I HAD EXPECTED. IT WAS PACKED EXTRA CAREFULLY AS I HAD REQUESTED, AND IT WAS SHIPPED IN A TIMELY MANNER. THEREFORE, I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SELLER. BASED ON THIS EXPERIENCE, I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AGAIN IN THE FUTURE, AND I PROBABLY WILL. YOU CAN BID WITH CONFIDENCE KNOWING YOU WILL BE MORE THAN SATISFIED WITH YOUR PURCHASE.
