General Automotive Reviews

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! There were many colorful pictures along with very descriptive and informative facts. I recommend this book to any tractor enthusiast like myself!! It makes you want to begin a hobby restoring vintage tractors (if you haven't already!!)

Pick this book up from classic motorbooks for less than $5. It lists all the 250's and who bought them. Plus anything special about each car.

Fiat 500

For many, just another microcar for others the best italian car of this century. First of all let can you imagine that almost 3.000.000 of these cars were built during the 50/60 decades.

In my opinion this book gives a very good overall overview of what are the 500 and 600. There are good pictures and ilustrations. I definetily consider this book as a basic book to buy or restore a 500

The only thing missing is more detail on the special versions that were made by abarth and giannini

Best regards

Excellent pictorials, of North-American and international engines, a Must for any collector.

If you're a Firebird/Trans Am fanatic you will be fascinated by this comprehensive collection of detailed road tests covering all Firebird models released from 1967 to 1972.

Each model year is covered by several road tests, although they can tend to repeat each other at times, it's interesting to hear several different points of view - the researchers even managed to dig up a couple of reviews from over here in the UK!

As well as containing a wealth of stats and performance figures the book is complete with lots of black and white photos of the cars from all angles including under the bonnet - invaluable if you are restoring a Firebird as these photos are of truly ORIGINAL cars.

Just to be complete there are a few articles on performance tuning, 'fitch' firebirds and a round up where the firebird and several other pony cars were compared.

I enjoyed this book and look forwards to reading the next one which picks up the story at 1973.

The trouble shooting of the motor

The Ford Escort Automotive Repair Manual is a great guide to all the specifics and important details that the owner of the Ford Escort must have to hand. It has detailed explanations of all the operations and internal wiring of the Ford Escort and guides you through al the changes that need to be made to changes or repair any parts within your Ford Escort. I very good guide.

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.

Lavishly embellished with archive photos and drawings, Ford Farm Tractors gives the Ford enthusiast copius information about the design and development of the Ford tractor line. From Ford's early attempts at traction power to the latest New Holland offerings, the author provides enough details to satisfy most information-hungry Ford lovers. Full-color photographs of collector tractors, working tractors and implements provide ample details for restorers and hobbyists alike. There are some minor editing details, such as a few mis-captioned pictures and the inclusion of several previously published photos that detract from this otherwise beautiful, useful and welcome addition to the tractor-enthusiast's library or coffee table.

If you ever wanted to know how these trucks looked like since the beggining of the oil industry, and its evolution throughout the years, this book will give you a very clear picture. It has lots of fantastic photos, drawings and other interesting details, but in my opinion it's very short of explicative/support text. Although it's only focused on American oil companies, the book is very good, and I had some great moments with it.
