5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, April 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Classic Chevy Truck Handbook HP 1534: How to Rod, Rebuild, Restore, Repair and Upgrade Classic Chevy Trucks, 1955-1960 (Paperback)
Very good book. I like that he speaks from a lot of experience. There's a good mix of expensive fixes (that I could never afford) and practical, cheap ones. This book is definitely focused on task force Chevys, although I bet it could apply to other years as well. I also bought "how to restore your Chevrolet pickup" and I like this one better.
