Default Your First Car............Get The Brochure

This has to be one of the neatest web sites

whether you have gasoline in your veins or not.


This is a web-site featuring the original factory brochures

for nearly every American car you have ever owned.

Pick the manufacturer, the year and the model. Enjoy!

Pretty cool to see a brochure for the 1962 Chevy II Nova, I wish I still had it.

Wow, that was cool. I looked the 65 Pontiac Tempest I had and I found this interesting:

--or order up a quick V8, 250 HP on regular, 285 HP on premium.

I believe it. Mine had a two speed automatic tranny, 2 bbl carb and a single exhaust. I put in a three speed tranny and dual exhaust but left the motor alone. Man, she was fast.

That's a sweet ride Jack. I've heard of horse power, but never a 2 goat powered vehicle.
