This a Decent book, Nice read, Lots of pages, lots of pics, Plenty of history and will not hurt your wallet.I had to settle for this book while I wait for a Good GM/General Motors Book. But sits nicely to my 1983 75 years edition book.And MBI's GM Motorama book. If your a GM fan, its worth it.

Great for the small stuff

Helpful Votes: 24 out of 26 total.
Review Date: 2001-05-30

I found this book to be helpful in taking on small tasks such as doing your own brakes. In all, I would estimate this book saved me a few hundred dollars in repairs this year versus what I would have spent at the dealership or the local repair shop. (I was really upset when I found out how SIMPLE it is to replace disc brake pads) However, I would not use this manual for serious work, such as engine overhauls. In essence, this book is great for doing brakes, belts, spark plugs and minor troubleshooting. I would not depend on it for anything beyond such activities. Some of the chapters discuss engine overhauls and replacing struts. These are two pretty dangerous activities that the book sort of glazes over. They should have just left those things to the logic of "let somebody else seriously injure themselves doing this stuff".

It would have been nice for Haynes to include the Cadillac engine computer trouble codes, but you have to buy a seperate Haynes manual to get those.

Excellent maintenance/repair reference

Helpful Votes: 4 out of 5 total.
Review Date: 1997-12-05

This book has a clearly written style that is easy to understand. The illustrations are placed near the aproriate text and referenced in the text.

This book contains many useful references for most of the car's systems. However I believe that more information and illustrations should have been included in the Body and chassis chapter which was quite short and bare. The illustrations in this chapter needed a little more detail especially on how the model years differed.

In addition, therre was virtually no information included on the turbocharger included in two model years and how their exhaust systems differed.

All in all a very good looking reference with a great deal of information. Thanks Chilton!

This book has helped me save some serious time, as I am not an automotive guru. It has also cut down on the amount of trips to the parts store. It could have been organized better, and it should have gone into more detail.

Review Date: 2007-01-10

I tried to get a manual from Chilton, but they never had one for my model and year car. Thanks to the Haynes manual I can do most basic services on my car like brakes, belts, tune-ups. etc. and save money from taking it to the shop. The steps are easy to follow, but there could be more pictures. You also need to have above average mechanical skills to understand how to do many of the procedures.

Rusted cars your thing, here you go

Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2003-01-17

If rusted cars are your thing, here you go. I can't get into it myself but I purchased this as a present. Perhaps theres not many rusted cars to choose from (as I'm sure compacting and recycling is very popular now) but I think the photos were a litte bit on the average side but lets face it, this is a one-of-a-kind subject matter, take it or leave it.
