When it comes to putting muscle in cars, nobody did it better than Chrysler Corporation! Who else would have named a car after one of the most famous cartoon birds in North America? What other company would have stuffed a 426 Hemi engine in a Dodge Coronet? Would any other factory have backed employee racing teams and produced lightweight screamers on its assembly line?

It's not fantasy, it all happened at Chrysler.

Author Mike Mueller carefully weaves interviews, data and his own images into a package that takes readers from the 1955 Chrysler C300 to the last hurrahs of the Duster in the late 1970s.

In between was a mild time of big block, high torque outrageous horsepower engines that were driven by everyone from Pasadena's famous granny to the racing king, Richard Petty.

• More than 200 original full-color photos
• Complete production figures, option lists and original prices
