“MOTOR’S” FLAT RATE & PARTS MANUAL Description: For sale is a 1958
MOTOR’S Flat Rate & Parts Manual.
Before computers were commonplace this guide was the “bible” for mechanics to help figure out how
long any specific mechanical job would take and what specific parts were involved
in doing the job. This book covers all
DOMESTIC
CARS cars from Buicks’s to Willy’s! It is a HIGHLY DETAILED book with schematics
for a huge variety of mechanical jobs.
The book is 1166 pages long. I am
sure my photos will best further describe this Vintage Mechanics “bible”. Condition:
I am really impressed how well this book has held up over the last 50+
years! The covers and the spine binding
are in really fine condition with only a bit of fading on the Title area. The front/back covers do not have any tears
or large scuffs. Keeping in mind this
was a “working” book, in a garage, the pages actually look pretty good. True, there are some oily fingerprints here
and there, but surely not so much that could be regarded as ruining the
book. The pages are 97% tear free. The book is complete with no missing
pages. Also, as I looked through it, I
did NOT
find even one pen/pencil mark anywhere. On a scale of 1 – 10 (ten being brand new), I
would rate the condition of this book to be a solid 7.5. If it wasn’t for some oily fingerprints, I
would have given it much higher. I am
confident my photos are an accurate depiction of this books TRUE
condition. Thank you
for looking at my listing. If you have
any questions, feel free to ask.

GM's historic Willow Run plant closes
Fri, 24 Dec 2010After 68 years of arming the nation and putting America on wheels, the Willow Run manufacturing plant in southeast Michigan closed on Thursday. The 5-million-square-foot powertrain plant, owned by Motors Liquidation Corp., the remnants of the former General Motors Corp., has fallen victim to GM's 2009 bankruptcy and subsequent restructuring. About 300 workers left at the plant will either “retire, transfer to another campus or go on layoff,” said Chris Lee, a spokesman for the reorganized General Motors Co.
Aston Martin Cygnet Concept – an ‘Urban’ Aston Martin
Mon, 29 Jun 2009The Aston Martin Cygnet Concept - an 'Urban' Aston Martin based on the Toyota iQ I have to confess, we didn’t see this coming – an Aston Martin based on the pocket-sized Toyota iQ. This must, by a very long way, be the smallest Aston Martin ever conceived. But it seems to have been conceived to be the ‘Urban’ alternative to a big DB9 or DBS.
