5.0 out of 5 stars Geared toward Models A, but usefull for ALL hot rods, February 7, 2002

By A Customer

Although this book follows the construction of a Model A, much of the information is extremely relevant to all makes and models of hot rods. If you are contemplating building a hot rod of any sort, but especially a Model A, this book will be very helpful. Informative text, along with good photos make this step by step documentation of a hot rod's buildup a must have for any hot rodders book collection.

2.0 out of 5 stars How to or Editorial?, November 3, 2005

By	P. Theodorou - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a nicely put together book but it is filled with much more opinion than how to articles with one paragraph explinations of such items as rear ends. I didnt say the opinions are bad its just that this book should not have "How to" in the title. I was disappointed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Veeery basic. No building info., June 8, 2009

By	Charles S. Clark - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is ok for someone who has never seen a Model A. Zero building info Just elementary and brief overview of what you need to tell whoever is going to actually do the work. Not a value buy.
