Classic Car Electrics: Tips, techniques & step-by-step repair, restoration & maintenance procedures (Enthusiast's Restoration Manual) Feature

Although classic car electrical systems are notoriously idiosyncratic, temperamental, and difficult to work with, a key to keeping an older vehicle on the road is correct and regular maintenance of the "electrics." This book contains extensive, well-illustrated information for classic enthusiasts who wish to service, repair, or upgrade their cars. The combination of the basics of how and why things work, all in plain language, along with extensive color photos and diagrams, means that, with a reasonable tool kit, a little common sense, and this book, the owner should be able to tackle pretty much any electrical fault in any classic car as well as maintenance. Definitely a must-have for anyone who owns, or plans to own, a classic.
