This was a great book to start with, and helped me get under way with my TR4a. However, I felt the book didn't get in to enough detail to actually help with the issues one comes across during a complete restoration. Many of the obscure details were overlooked and left me having to scour message boards and piece together disparate information. I wish there was a book written by someone who has restored a Triumph and who documented the difficult details...

This is a good quality book that is well written and has some excellent photographs. I won't say this is a book for experts, but then again I'm no expert. It is good for the hobbyist, though, and it certainly filled the needs I had in doing basic restoration work on my TR4.

This book is good for a highly experienced restorer who has a TR4 in very poor condition and needs to do a lot of rust repair. It is not for your average hobby restorer, or anyone doing a restoration on a solid car. It provides absolutely no information on finish work and original TR4 details. I feel the restoration work this book focuses on is beyond the scope everyone except the top 10 percent of those in the hobby.
