Chevrolet Books

everyone should read this book, if you ever plan to do the work on your own car. so the car dealers won,t rip you off!!

I fix my car often and have a few books about it, but none come close to the depth that Chiltons puts into their books. First I do have the Haynes repair guide, but it has very few pictures and does not explain in detail about how to remove some parts of your car. If you need to buy a repair manual for your car then buy Chiltons.

this is a great book for DIY people. I used it for quite a few projects. Nice to have around!

After my son blew the timing chain on his 94 Z24, I found this book to be very insightful in it's repair.

I used this manual to make practical repairs to a 1983 Cavalier. It gave detailed and very comprehensive information, with lots of photos and drawings to guide me through every step of maintenance, repair, or overhaul. A shop manual is a reference. You want to be able to find information fast. This Clymer book, is designed with such use in mind!

I read the book and just want to make a review of certain car that I'm planning to buy and make the maintenance after

This book covers most of what you possible could need building your own engine with higher power as your main goal.

It gives you the possibility to choose from different approaches to each specific hp-goal and also suggestions to overal hp-gains on all BBC-engines.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!

This is the best book on the Big Block, most others are too old, this one dates the articles so you know if you are getting new info....I reccommend it

For those of us who go out learning to hod rod the hardway, that is books, because we don't have the money to waste building one motor after another, this is a must have. If you read into the text, and take out a pen and paper to do a little figuring, this book will give you most everything you need to build an incredible race motor. The same principles for building race motors can be used to build street vehicles for economy, tow, and the ever sought sleeper rod.

Vizard goes into great detail and geeks like me with a little math and physics background can get what we need pick the right cam. This principle will apply equally well to all engine types.

If you don't want to do the extra leg-work the book will give a pretty good feel for cam profile selection in the small-block chevy without the math. In fact he doesn't suggest the extra work at all, but if you have the brains you can extrapolate more from this book than the other twelve motor books on my shelf combined (yes, I counted).

This has been a very useful book. It will be useful for the beginner or the professional. As with many of Mr. Vizard's books, it easily understood and very detailed. I have already had very rewarding results and still have much more material to experiment with. The material is very practical and for the hands on enthusiast.

It is a good merchandise very low price. It a great opportunity to learned all those trick that can help you to fond a solution on restoration and repair project.

This book is superb. It is logically organized, clearly written, and extremely well illustrated. One of the best books of its' type in my library. I vastly increased my knowledge of the Powerglide transmission by reading this book. It has enough detail that ius worth re-reading and certainly keeping as a reference.

For fans of the 1950's Chevrolets, Jon Robinson's 192-page book is well worth the wait. This compilation is dated 2006, and is in soft-cover form. We've seen efforts like this in the past with the Consumers Guide hardcover publication from 1993 and 1995's "The Hot Ones," by Anthony Young and Mike Mueller. Mr. Mueller and Mike Key also did brief pictorials on the tri-fives that were worth buying and preserving. In 2003, Robert Genat gave us his colorful, but flawed, "Original Chevrolet, 1955-1956-1957. In between, there have been a number of other publications, most of which lacked the color photographs and illustrations so sumptuously provided in this book by Mr. Robinson. Without confirming every fact and figure (which would be a monumental task) Robinson's book combines the important statistical and technical data with ads and other graphics from the period. Most of these are in color, as are recent photos of these now-classic cars. I would highly recommend Robinson's book to any fans of Chevrolets of the 1950's.

It is very good catalog but instead of supplying multiple images for a sigle vehicle from a certain year it could be better to have more photos of different models from the same year. Technical data could be more detailed.

This book has most information about Chevrolets I have ever seen. I really like Chevrolets, but could never find all of the info I needed for them. If models are look exactly alike, the book doesn't skip them. It talks about ALL models for that year. With black and white pictures of every one. If your after Chevrolets this is a very good book. I'm going to get the other Standard Catalog American Car books with Buicks, Cadillacs, Chrysler, etc. This is an excellent book!

I currently need to research production data for my websiteand club members, this book contains vast collections of Chevrolet production data not available in any other place. The book is laid out great and is easy to use.

Who doesn't want the original glovebox manual that came with the car?! Vintage, fun, essential. I had one of these great cars, and when I sold it, I guess I forgot I had this packed away. Great deal, recommended.

Long before the small block chevy hunted the streets, the GMC was the way to go. California Bill tells all. Fun to read, cool to browse, I'm always picking mine up. Turn up the way back machine Sherman and gaze at ancient speed parts offered by long forgotten manufacturers. It's an exact copy of the original and you don't have top worry about the binding falling apart. Very Cool.
