4 out of 5 stars Well done history on a true artisan   December 6, 2005
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Pat Ganahl has taken a very difficult subject, by the name of "Von Dutch" aka Kenneth Howard into a collage of history, photos and stories. There are many people who claim to have "known Von Dutch" [1929-1992]. Most just "used" him and his "reputation."

The most important photo of the book is on page 171 (lower right), taken by Pat in Dutch's final years. . . Kenneth Howard could be compared to Da Vinci in many ways, he was an excellent craftsman who loved to "put people on."

A very well written book by respected automotive writer Pat Ganahl. It is the life and work of the interesting and slightly crazy early auto paint striper Von Dutch. Includes some great photographs. If you are interested in old school automotive customizing I would recomend this book.


3 out of 5 stars Why this book!?   August 5, 2005

"WHY SPOIL A GOOD STORY WITH THE TRUTH!?" (Dutch's favorite saying about writers.)
Well...the pictures are great, but there are way too many contradictions.....the author admitedly confesses the truth being hard to come by.Well then....WHY THIS BOOK!?
