2.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointed,
By
This review is from: Oldsmobile 4-4-2 and W-Machine: Restoration Guide (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
I was hoping this book would have some actual information about doing a restoration. All it has are lists of some vehicle specifications, and a spotter guide for each year that 442's were made. Everything is in black and white. Overall I was disappointed with the book. I am halfway done with a complete frame off restoration on a 1970 442 and I have not used ANY info from this book yet.

Oldsmobile 4-4-2 and W-Machine: Restoration Guide,
By
This review is from: Oldsmobile 4-4-2 and W-Machine: Restoration Guide (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
This book is not a restoration guide, it's more of a highlights book with pictures. More effort could have been put into this book with more detail.

A Great Cutlass & 4-4-2 Guide,
By Keith C. (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oldsmobile 4-4-2 and W-Machine: Restoration Guide (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
This book is very informative. It has numerous tables stuffed full of the information that is needed to identify your car's factory equipment. It also has an adequate supply of pictures and diagrams to break up the boredom of all the specifications. This book only covers the model years of 1964 through 1972, so don't buy this book if your car doesn't fit into this era. I haven't seen a better Olds Cutlass book yet.
