Iconic: Art, Design, Advertising, and the Automobile invites readers into the world of Miles S. Nadal’s Dare to Dream Automotive Museum, where some of the most legendary cars of the last century are celebrated—not just for their engineering, but for their cultural impact. From a Ford GT in custom Gulf livery to Jacques Villeneuve’s Reynard Formula Ford, each vehicle has been handpicked for its lasting influence and timeless appeal.
Accompanied by vivid photography from Michael Furman and rich historical insights by automotive historian Ken Gross, this collection brings each car to life, capturing their design, legacy, and emotional power. It’s more than a showcase—it’s an immersive journey through automotive history.
Beyond the cars, the book delves into what makes a vehicle truly iconic. With insights from industry legends like Jay Leno, Bruce Meyer, and designers like Chris Bangle, it explores the intersection of automobiles, design, and advertising. From vintage classics to cutting-edge electric cars, Iconic uncovers the qualities that elevate a car—and its story—into legend.
