Customer comments on this selection.
 Lots of pictures and details.
This book offers a very good overview of a complete restoration job for a 1969 Corvette. Unfortunately, the type of Corvette used is not specified in the title or on the cover, and you'd never guess, since on the cover there's a picture of a Sting Ray and a C4. I won't complain too much, since I have a 1968 and am in luck, but it might be a disappointment for others. Other that that, the book is great, it gets you off to a great start, it's not a NCRS level reference, but for a amateur mechanic who's looking to fix up his vette, it does more than a good job. It's also good at recommending the tools and materials as well as pointing to other references that might help you accomplish a specific task. They are also doing a frame off resto, so the pictures are great, as they were taken from angles you'd never get when you're doing a frame on resto. It could go a little more into detail for a inexpirienced mechanic, but I noticed that books like those are pretty much impossible to find. You just have to pay the dues and learn the basics yourself.
