Yes this would be really cool and one book I would definitely purchase. Ken take note on this as you have the great opportunity to put something like this together. One could also incorporate other cars from that era such as the Shell Opel car and 1947 Studebaker then progress into the modern cars we can see at the Shell Eco Marathons currently. Another very cool point is that the original designers of the Fiat can be interviewed and implemented into the book as well as others who worked for shell back in those days. This would greatly add to the books value as not only a cool book but a piece of automotive history. Before and after pics can be offered as well as technology, modifications, and overall design can all be discussed.
I think every eco-hypermiler would want a copy of this book as it would represent a great look into our past roots so to speak and create great exposure to the ecomodder movement around the globe
