Cars of our presidents 1918-2024, Jan Tuček
For more than a century, Czechoslovak and Czech presidents have been driving automobiles. This book attempts to map the diverse range of several hundred cars from two dozen domestic and foreign brands that have made a significant contribution to our history thanks to their users. In addition to well-known cars, it also commemorates some almost forgotten ones.
Cars in Czechoslovakia 1945-1990. Domestic and imported passenger cars, Jan Tuček
The book recalls more than 150 car models that were sold in Czechoslovakia between 1945 and 1990. Passenger cars of three dozen different brands came from domestic production, but also from imports, whether from Eastern or Western Europe, and exceptionally from Japan and South Korea. The car descriptions are illustrated by 450 mostly color photographs and drawings.
Tatra – Passenger Cars on Posters and Brochures 1945-1999, Martin Kupec
The Tatra limousines, produced between 1945 and 1999, had a special fate. Although they were always elegant cars with a unique technical concept, they carried a certain stigma with them. This was due to their almost exclusive purpose for a narrowly selected circle, especially political prominent people of the time. Even though these cars were not primarily sold on the regular market, their printed promotion in the form of brochures and posters was quite extensive. This resulted in many unique materials for domestic and foreign customers. And almost all of them have been concentrated in this book for the first time. A novelty in the publication this time is a total of 21 drawings, mainly of cars, by the artist Jan Hlavín, which introduce individual chapters and enrich the book artistically.

TATRA 813: history, tactical-technical data, modifications, Jiří Frýba
The only comprehensive publication on the development, production and individual versions of the Tatra 813 vehicle is compiled mainly from archival documents of the Central Military Archive/Military Historical Archive Prague. In the introduction, it introduces the reader to the means used to move artillery and very heavy loads after World War II. The main part of the book contains information on the development of the Tatra 813 tractor, on the production of prototypes and their testing, as well as on the design of semi-trailers required by the army. In the most extensive chapter, divided into several parts, you will find tactical and technical data on individual applications of the vehicle, which are supplemented by drawings and photographs of various parts of the vehicle. The basic type of the Tatra 813 8 × 8 tractor (Kolos) is described in the most detail, from which the entire unified series is based. For other versions, including civilian ones, mainly design changes are presented. The appendices contain not only descriptions of the tractor's semi-trailer equipment and the use of T 930 series engines in individual vehicles, but also color photographs of the T 813 vehicles and their successor, the T 815.

Tatra 805: history, tactical-technical data, modifications, Jiří Frýba
The Tatra 805 light truck was developed in the early 1950s – at a time when the whole of Europe was slowly recovering from the consequences of World War II. The first pages will acquaint readers with the then level of motorization of our army, which primarily initiated the need for a mobile 1.5-ton vehicle. In addition to the basic versions of the flatbed and box, other single-purpose superstructures were built on the existing chassis to perform specific army tasks. The comprehensive text will explain to readers what individual designations such as Šárka, Jarmila, Ezop, Mozek, Třinec and Neděle meant. The difficult-to-understand delimitations and transfers of the final assemblies of the T 805 between production plants are still evidence of „planned“ mistakes. Previously unpublished photographs, clearly arranged technical tables and drawings will remind witnesses of the „eight hundred and five“ from common army and civilian versions to unknown prototypes. The publication will help readers of younger generations understand technical possibilities in the context of the time.
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.
