3.0 out of 5 stars Information not "restoration", May 25, 2000
By "suncuda" (Fernley, NV United States) - See all my reviews
This is a great book of information , but definately NOT a "restoration" guide. It provides good information about the options and details to each year make and model but not much more. If you are looking for details about restoring your car (chalk marks, correct finish's, fasteners, etc) keep looking elsewhere. There are also numerous errors contained in this book as well as the "Charger, Roadrunner, Superbee Authentic Resto Guide" written by the same author, no surprise there! Buy it for the information, but don't think you're gonna take home any show trophies after reading it .

4.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for most details about these great cars, February 1, 1999
By A Customer
This book provides valuable illustrations and photos of these beautiful automobiles, and also some of the little known details that can help make your restoration complete.

Don't expect this to be the only resource you'll need to complete a concours restoration, but you'll find it extremely useful for coming to understand the different options that were available for your model year, and more importantly, those little things that were unique to a particular year model.

I've found it to be a very helpful resource for my first restoration, a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S.

2.0 out of 5 stars not a restoration book!, August 23, 2000
If you want to know what the proper tire pressure for a 'cuda or challenger was or what color the aircleaner was, get this book. If you want help or guidance fixing up your car, look elsewhere. This book will tell you all about what the original specifications were for these cars (which might be helpful to some) but has no information on how to repair them to the point where knowing which direction a sticker faced would help.
