This book is a must-have for any collector or enthusiast of the Ford Skyliner, a general car enthusiast,  a rare book collector, or Ford enthusiasts!! Written by Ben Smith, it provides a detailed and fascinating look into the history of the retractable roof and how it came to be. The book is a rare find and a valuable addition to any collection.


The Birth of the Retractable is a comprehensive guide to the development of Ford Skyliner, with a focus on the retractable roof and its impact on the car's design and functionality. This book is a true gem for anyone interested in the history of Ford Skyliner and the retractable roof.


The comdition of both the wooden display case is excellent!

The display case has a couple of light scratches and scuffs but is otherwise gorgeous! I am unsure what type of wood it is, but it is very nice!


I have found no flaws with the book itself! Other than taking a peek at some of the pages, I am not sure it has ever been read. The book has been protected for many years.


I look forward to finding it a good home to someone who appreciates its rarity and value.
