    the book referred to here as the Bible on the Dino is now available, as a re-print.

    In stock at Amazon.com

    don't spend $200, when it can be had for under $25.00

    Despite what it says on the web page, it is in stock and shipping from Amazon right now.

    http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0760320101/qid=1091906660/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/103-8403529-8903823?v=glance&s=books&n=507846


    Don't like Amazon, Barnes and Noble has is too.

    Hmmm, leave it backordered at a higher price, or buy it now at a lower price from Amazon...I can appreciate your dilemma.

    Does anyone know if Scarlet Passion by Pritchard is out yet? I have both the Dino book and the Pritchard book on backorder with Amazon. They told me they would ship the middle of October.

    I placed the order, but still says "Availability: This item has not yet been released. You may order it now and we will ship it to you when it arrives."

    Why do you think its in stock and shipping considering it says that?

    I have the original hardcover edition and most of the book is about the race cars. Then in the back there are a few road test article reprints about the dino road cars, and I'm pretty sure this includes the 308GT4.

    ok, i'm on the phone with borders now

    250 GTO is in their system but they have to go to the publisher: $39.95. I've still ordered a copy and it should be here in a few weeks :D

    Dino book (subject of this thread) is unreleased as of yet, delivery probably near end of September, i've preordered mine on their site (its $10 cheaper)

    Scarlet Passion is to be released end of September. Ordered mine on the site

    btw, The Complete Ferrari by Godfrey Eaton is now out of print (just in case you didn't know)

    Oh sure, now you chirp in.

    How the HELL are we supposed to support your chosen profession if you're this late to the party???? C'mon Carbo.....

    What other great and mysterious Dino stuff do you have, besides back issues, of course.
