 Camaro Restoration Guide
I received this book a while back and have now finished reading it cover to cover. The book that came in the mail is not exactly the same book pictured here on Amazon.com but it has the same essential content, just simply with some different pictures. The Book was extremely helpful and knowledge full. It even offered detailed information about all the little things you could want to know about the First Generation Camaro. This book is a must own for anyone who is restoring or is thinking about restoring a Camaro.
Proper Do's and Don'ts
Very good book for the novice who wants to know the do's and don'ts in restoring a camaro. Generalized information that is not a procedural guide on how to make big mechanical repairs. Full of simple information. No enough technical information for the seasoned mechanic.
 Long on Nut's & Bolts short on easy to read specifics.
Bought the book hoping it would assist me in re-counstructing wiring on the 1st Gen (specifically 67 RS)I was/am greatly dissapointed. It shows and lists things like "nut's,screws, washers etc... but miserably fails to provide easy to read schematics (color codes,relays,breakers and mountings) of such difficult areas as headlights and engine compartment looms.
 The best book out there for restoring a 67-69 Camaro
This is by far one of the best, if not the best reference guide for restoring a 1967, 68 or 69 Camaro. Production codes, trim codes, RPO codes as well as complete original assembly manual guides an illustrations are included.If you're looking for the best reference to restore that classic Camaro to factory correct specs... this is it!
 Not for those that already have the factory manuals.
If your restoring your own camaro, (and you do your own restoration work) you'd think this would be a good book to get. However, if your like me, you already own the GM overhaul/chasis manual, the fisher body manual, the wiring diagram and the factory assembly manual. I bought this book thinking it would aid me in restoring my camaro. Instead, this book is nothing but a bunch of diagrams/clips taken from the books mentioned above but in much less detail. I am surprised the other two reviews were real positive because if you already have the factory manuals, it renders this book useless and quite lacking. This book does have a good bit of facts and codes but if your looking for that type of info, go for the Big Book of Camaro Data. For real "how to" type applications and in a step-by-step procedure in bringing your camaro back to life I recommend the Camaro Restoration Handbook by Currao and the Camaro Owner's Handbook by Sessions. Check 'em out.
