HEMMINGS CLASSIC CAR
"In typical How-To fashion, this book takes home restorers step by step through buying, evaluating and restoring the car: bodywork, paint, engines, transmissions, brakes, suspension, electrical, interior and more are covered. Clear color photos make this 192-page softcover easy to follow. If you're considering a Sting Ray, start here."

"Is restoring your second-generation Corvette making you pull your hair out? Not to worry, Corvette restorer Chris Petris makes it simple with his guide to restoring the midyear models. He gives pointers on how to choose your Vette; how to choose a shop to restore it's engine, transmission, brakes wiring and interior; and how to do it yourself for everything in between. Petris' well-photographed step-by-step instructions are detailed and easy to follow. This book is a find for anyone in the market for a Corvette project or who has one gathering dust in the garage and wants to turn back the hands of time."
