Cars of the Eastern Bloc, Jan Tuček
Škoda, Tatra, Trabant, Wartburg, Polski Fiat, Dacia, Oltcit, Moskvich, Lada, Volga and other brands were an integral part of the pre-November era. Sometimes we turned our noses up at them and longed for something better. However, most of us had no choice. Today we can laugh about it, but we should not forget. Not only about that time, but also about the cars we drove back then.
And yet it spins, Jan Králík
New book from the warehouse.
The author, in his own unique way, expressed his admiration for the Sisyphean effort of all collectors and renovators of cars, buses, motorcycles or stationary engines, for their lifelong toil, which at the very end of this journey we can admire and say that our grandfathers knew how to make it, after all, that machine actually has a soul... The fates of these passionate fans and their collections are all the more interesting because after 30 years a lot has changed. Jiří Wagner accompanied the book with his photographs.
