Just found this and decided to spoil myself with the watch package. Spending money on me , not a car or house repair for once. This stomach virus must have gotten to me .

It's an awesome book.
Lionel, the author, will probably be joining us at Expo West this year too.
It's a limited print book, and I think he's getting to the end of the supply. King has been ordering copies and are available here:

He did the book himself, as-in, self-published it along with some crowd funding. I have a ton of respect for people who have that kind of dedication and initiative. It's a rare thing.
And yeah, it's a cool book.

Thanks for posting this! Just ordered a copy.
Car books don't make authors much money. They are limited printings and then they are hard to come by when they sell out. So cool he made a type R book.

Just doing my part . Not sure on the eefect bonus cost but king may be a little cheaper with the exchange rate. The book and watch worked out $10 cheaper than the watch I located which I bid on and lost. Totally respectful how it was published and self funded.

Very cool. Nice to see someone put so much time and dedication into telling the story of these special models...

I can't comment on the eeffect items but believe that King is basically breaking even on the books.
