Landy's Dodges: The Mighty Mopars of "Dandy" Dick Landy

           Landy's Dodges: The Mighty Mopars of "Dandy" Dick Landy takes you chronologically through the cars of Dick's career, from his earliest mounts (such as Ford Galaxies and Plymouth Max Wedges) through his many years of campaigning Coronets. Chargers, Challengers, Darts and Super Bees after being sponsored by the Dodge Division of Chrysler starting in 1964. Racing historian and author Geoff Stunkard presents a highly detailed account of Dick's cars, from the early stockers through the revolutionary first funny cars to the final Pro Stocks, including vehicle development, narratives on rules-making and race results, and rare never-before-seen images from the Landy family's personal archive. Coupled with modern shots of Landy's restored cars and exclusive photos from the legendary Petersen Publishing (TEN) Archive as well, this book is profusely illustrated and features special 'Where Are They Now,' information on the surviving and missing cars today. 

                In addition to detailed coverage of cars like Landy's 1964 S/SA Hemi Dodge, 1968 Hurst Hemi Dart, and 1970 Pro Stock Dodge Challenger, information on the factory race clinic programs, car transporters, DLI (Dick Landy Industries) race engine shop, and personal recollections by Dick and members of the Landy family are included. Broken into easily-read sections based on Chrysler B-, A- and E-body platforms, at no other time has Landy's entire career been chronicled and cataloged in print. From hard launches in the gold dust on fuel to the racing strategies that made Dick Landy a winner on raceday, sit back in your recliner (wheels up) and enjoy the most comprehensive book on the history of "Dandy" Dick Landy and his legndary Mopar racecars, retold by a veteran motorsports journalist who knew him personally.
