Synopsis
George Hurst was a hot rodder at heart, but he was also a visionary, an innovator, a brilliant promoter, and he was particularly skilled at building alliances. Hurst developed and marketed a high-performance line of shifters that led the industry and became the cornerstone of the company. After forming an alliance with Anco Industries, Hurst marketed and sold more than 100 speed parts that included shifters, heads, wheels, and many other parts. Eventually, the Hurst catalog became the source for high-performance parts in the 1960s and 1970s. Jack "Doc" Watson joined Hurst and became a pivotal figure within the company, which led to many performance projects with Pontiac. Over the years, Hurst also partnered with Oldsmobile to build special 442s known as the "Hurst" Olds, with AMC to build the wickedly effective SC Rambler, and with Chrysler to create a number of Super Stock cars as well as the 300H. He also helped build one of the most memorable exhibition cars in drag-racing history, the Hemi Under Glass . No other company or individual had as big of an impact on so many aspects of the automotive industry as George Hurst. His performance parts were some of the best ever, the competition cars won many races, and the muscle cars that bear his name were some of the best of the era. Scores of interviews, in-depth research, and exceptional insight from veteran magazine editor Richard Truesdell and co-author Mark Fletcher have created a great book. In this softcover edition, Hurst Equipped: Revised and Updated Edition captures the complete story from the production cars and race cars to the performance parts., In this softcover edition, Hurst Equipped: Revised and Updated Edition captures the complete story from the production cars and race cars to the performance parts.

- 6***a (1102)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent Quality, great price, as new condition! A+++
- p***e (1153)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseJust as described, Thank you!
- r***t (235)- Feedback left by buyer.More than a year agoVerified purchaseThe Seller is just fine. But the book itself could use a serious edit of the timeline of Hurst's projects, promotions, and business history. It's somewhat jumpy and bounces around a bit. And, it could use a good spellcheck and edit for accuracy, because in a few cases the wording is in error or otherwise confusing.
- e***_ (104)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseQuality description and great communication. Packaging was a little lacking and carrier folded it into the mailbox but the book arrived undamaged fortunately. Recommend boxes for books but otherwise a great seller!
- r***r (393)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe seller was awesome! Very good communication and helpful but the shipping was a nightmare. FedEx shipping is the worst. The seller did not pick the shipper. This was done by Nitrous Outlet. Took nearly 30 days & two orders to get the product. Nitrous Outlet shipped it requiring a signature which in itself was not a problem except if you at not at home you don’t get your package. FedEx refused to allow me to pick up the package. Had to have another order to a different address to get it.
- 8***k (272)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseMy "Muncie 4 Speed Manuel" arrived just ten minutes ago and it's as pictured. the condition is new. The shipping and delivery was ahead of schedule. Thank you, USPS! This manuel was affordably priced. I will buy from this vendor in the future when needed...
