Original 1951-1959 Chilton's Auto Repair Manual, Shop Service Book Like Motor's on 2040-parts.com
Riverbank, California, US
For your consideration is an original CHILTON's Auto Repair Manual, covering model years 1951-1959. I cut my teeth working on my cars with CHILTON's & MOTOR'S manuals before I could afford specific shop manuals for each car. Some prefer these over Motor's, and vice versa. This is a very nice example, and I would rate its condition as "EXCELLENT +", in exceptional condition for its age. The amount and diversity of information contained in these manuals is difficult to summarize, so if you have a specific question, please feel free to ask. I have captured a few sample pictures to indicate condition. Check out my other items! During the next few months I will be thinning out my vast collection of manuals, including dealer brochures, owner’ s manuals, shop manuals, body service manuals, etc. All manuals are originals, NEVER REPRINTS!
