My advice is to save your money and buy the Chilton's. Better yet try to find used versions of the original single model year Chilton's or Motor's Manuals that were sold to professionals for the specific year(s) you require. A major problem I see with this book is trying to cover too many model years in too few pages. If you have a 1981 to 1988 Cutlass you definitley want to look elsewhere. Chapter 13 is titled "Revisions and information on later models", which means everything from 1981 to 1988, a total of 38 pages of which 4 pages are specifications and 18 are full page electrical schematics of "Typical later model" items, of which most are of no value. Unless you just want a book to use as filler on your automotive shelf this book won't be of much value. Just one man's opinion.

Manual is good in some areas like engine maintenance, but lacking details in most others. Example: 7 lines of information on how to remove and install rear stabilizer bar. Just to many years to cover in one book.
