    Nathan's book should be ready to ship in May. I'd like to close out our pre-orders on this and get them over to Nathan so he can do his thing.

    I've seen some galley proofs and this book looks great, is well researched and written, as is everything I've ever seen of Nathan's.

    Here's the special Fchat offer, available only on www.Fchatstuff.com

    Deluxe edition ~$190.00 USD. It's priced at 99 GBP, so exchange rates will come into play. Here's Nathan's Description:

    There will also be a limited edition (512 only) deluxe version. This will be red leatherette finish with the BB logo stamped in silver and in a slip case, and will also include a free DVD. The DVD will have extra photos that we couldn't get in the book, or perhaps are interesting but not good enough quality, or even turned up too late. There will also be other information such as pdf files of handbooks, certification documents, build sheets, and BB/LM video(s), but we're still working on that. This deluxe version should be £99 (c.$190).

    The Deluxe Edition will also include a personal inscription to the buyer from Nathan.

    To order the Deluxe Edition click HERE!!

    Standard Edition ~ $85 UDS. It's priced at 45 GBP, so again, exchange rates will apply. Nathan's own words, here's what you get:

    All being well we are looking at a book the same size and quality as Phil Hill's 'A Champion's View'. So large size - app 13" x 10" (330 x 250); about 200-250pp, about 250 photos. It will contain;

    PART ONE - The Road Cars a history of the Ferrari Boxer engine, from 1965 through to the first BB. 365GT/4 BB - Technical; The Engine, The Chassis, The Bodywork, Press Reactions, Contemporary Competitors BB512 (1976-81) - Background, Press Reaction, Contemporary Competitors BB512i (1981-84) - Background, Press Reaction, Contemporary Competitors The Specials — special bodied and turbo-charged versions Table: Technical Specifications

    PART TWO - The Competition Cars The Races: 1975 - 1984 (inclused interviews with owners, drivers etc) The BB/LMs: Individual Chassis Histories (with photos of every BB/LM, even unraced cars) Table: Race Results – by event (entrant, drivers, ch #, race # etc)

    PART THREE - Memorabilia Models, Books & Brochures

    APPENDIX Table: BB Register—all the known chassis nos. (more than 1600 listed with colours, histories etc. where known)

    Standard version should be £45 (c.$85)


    to buy the standard edition click HERE
    For a sneak peek, download the PDF. Here's the cover.

    I'm going to close out pre-orders on April 15, after that, you'll have to order from Nathan (or another distributor) and endure the costs of overseas mailing, dealing with exchange rates and all that bother.

    Thanks for looking,

    Dave M.

    If I have already purchased the "deluxe" edition, do I need to "repurchase" because of the publication issues?

    No need to re-buy, if you purchased on www.fchatstuff.com. We will not charge any cards until the book is here, and shipped. If you'd like me to check the records for your order, I can do that in the AM.

    Hi Dave,

    First of all: Can't wait! Very exciting.

    Secondly, I'd ordered a few weeks back ALONG WITH several other smaller items on your site. I've recieved none of that, presumably because you were waiting on the book, which I understand. If you'd go ahead and send the smaller things, that'd be great. Looking forward to the book as well.

    I need to clarify one point. The deluxe edition will come with a free CD-ROM not DVD. My error (not Daves) as I did not understand the technical difference between a DVD and a CD-ROM (heck, they're both round and silver). So it's a free CD-ROM not a DVD. We're up to more than 100 extra photos, plus all the other good stuff that Dave has mentioned above.

    Hi Drew,
    Both editions should be ready by end of May. There's a big Ferrari 60th event at Silverstone 8-10 June, and we have to make that.
    Best regards

    Have just delivered the proofs to the designer. They will take about 10 days to action and I will have the FINAL proof at the end of next week. There might be a couple of final tweaks but should be able to press that 'PRINT' button in 2-3 weeks - middle/end of April. Allow for printing and binding etc and 4 weeks later - middle/end of May - we should have the final product.
    Can't wait!!

    Final Pricing on the Standard Edition is now in.

    All orders placed up to RIGHT NOW (12 noon eastern time April 11, 2007) are at the original price.

    Any order place from today on will be at $95.00.

    Deluxe edition pricing will remain the same.

    Turns out the book is more pages than originally anticipated (20% more) resulting in a price increase.

    Thanks again for all your orders.

    Have done the final corrections (I hope they're the last!) which should be amended by Monday. We then give the go-ahead and the production process starts. Plate-making, printing and binding - about 4 weeks in total, so should start shipping at end of May. A few people have seen the proofs (including a couple of book-sellers who can be quite cutting if need be) and so far the reactions have been positive and encouraging.
    More news as we get it

    Nathan very kindly showed me the proofs on Monday and I must say the book is looking superb (even better than I expected). I can't wait for my own copy.

    Thanks for that. Funny enough, "even better than I expected" was the same comment from one of the book dealers that also saw the proofs.
    nor can I.

    Have now reached the point of no return - printing has started - should be fully printed by end of this week, then folding, stitching, trimming, binding etc etc. takes another 2 weeks or so - then we're ready to ship.

    Hi Dave,

    I've ordered one copy for myself and a deluxe copy for a friend via e-mail to Nathan. Did you include me in your mailing about the personal inscription and are my orders confirmed? Thanks.

    Best regards, Peter
