A good reference,
By Grendel "G." (OR USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Corvette, 1966-1982: Shop Manual (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
The "Corvette, 1966-82 : Shop Manual" is certainly not as detailed as the GM manual but it contains all the layperson needs to do the basic maintenance on all moving parts. Highly recommended to have it in the trunk for diagnosis and reference on the run.

Poorly titled and described.,

This review is from: Corvette, 1966-1982: Shop Manual (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
This book should NOT be considered a shop manual. It lacks many basic elements of repair. For example, there is no information in the book about removing the door panels, replacing a door lock or body panel adjustments. As a very basic and rudimentary overview of C3 vette's it is acceptable. If you need a true "shop manual" that describes in detail every component of the car, you need to look elsewhere.

This review is from: Corvette, 1966-1982: Shop Manual (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
I own a 1982 Corvette and was looking for a book that would help me conduct maintenance on it. This is not the book to own.
Unfortunately I purchase a number of these types of general maintenance books to help me with my corvette. They do provide you with the most common repair processes for the most common Corvette but if your maintenance requirements for your Corvette are not common this book is useless. Unfortunately the (C3 body style) Corvettes underwent a lot of changes and unless you are really in luck procedures to repair your Corvette may not be correct in this manual. You need to purchase a Shop Manual for the year of car you own. They are available from different sources a lot from Amazon. Do not purchase these types of general maintenance books if you want to do anything other than change the oil. Unfortunately I did not figure this out until I connected with C3VR.com guys and got some help.
