The Stewardship of Historically Important Automobiles
Edited by Dr. Frederick Simeone
This important work takes a multi-disciplinary look at the central question of preservation vs. restoration, when it comes to automobiles of historical significance. Chapters devoted to such topics as conservation, over-restoration, provenance and collecting are contributed by a selection of luminaries in their respective fields, including Miles Collier, Stephen DuPont, Ed Gilbertson, T.E. Berrisford, Malcolm Collum, Mark Gessler, Miles Morris and of course, Dr. Simeone himself.
Whether one wrestles with how much to restore/preserve a significant vehicle or whether the Bugeye needs a respray, this book stages an interesting departure point for the discussion of important questions that the hobby, as a whole, should consider in the years ahead.
