In case you\u2019ve been buried under a rock these past years, you can\u2019t help have noticed that there\u2019s a real Hot Rod revival going on, with vintage events cropping up all over the place.<\/p>\n

Core festivals like the Hayride<\/a> are becoming more and more popular \u2013 and the forties and fifties are becoming the decades referenced by the most creative recyclers of culture.<\/p>\n

And amid a subculture that lives and breathes on heritage brands, there\u2019s something about those Moon eyes.
\nWe hate using the word, but this brand really is iconic.<\/p>\n

Great timing then, for French- based connoisseur of Rod Culture Laurent Bagnard to bring out a book that delves into the venerable archive of the Moon\u2019s brand history.<\/p>\n

Dean Moon<\/a>, born in 1927, was one of the genuine pioneers of Hot Rodding, and built a company that became synonymous with the coolest bolt- on accessories, particularly those foot- shaped gas pedals<\/a> (with five toes and all) those matt silver moon disc wheel trims.<\/p>\n

But while these very visible trinkets probably made the company most of their money, Mr. Moon was apparently responsible for hopping up many successful dragsters and Bonneville rides.<\/p>\n

In the sixties, according to the author Moon- equipped engines were even known to make it into Formula one cars.<\/p>\n

The book is sure to become a must-have for the car culture geek.<\/p>\n
