BSA BANTAM D1-D3-D5-D7 ’SERVICE SHEETS’ 1948-1966 RIGID, SPRING FRAME AND SWING ARM 125cc-150cc-175cc MODELS
162 pages, and more than 200 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches.In 1945, after the war had ended, BSA resumed production of their civilian line of motorcycles. However, they continued their pre-war practice of publishing repair, overhaul and technical information in the form of individual 'Service Sheets'. These sheets were 'dealer only' publications and, as such, the print quality was at times somewhat questionable. It was not until the early 1960's that BSA eventually started publishing model specific workshop manuals that were available to the general public. Consequently, these 'Service Sheets' were the only publications available for the maintenance and repair of BSA models that were manufactured through the early 1960's.At some point in the 1930's, BSA adopted the practice of identifying their various model types by 'groups' and the models manufactured from 1945 through the mid 1960's were in Groups A, B, C, D and M. The service sheets that were associated to a particular group were identified numerically and, while there were some exceptions due to overlapping data between models, in general terms the numbers relate to a particular model group. They are as follows: The 200 series of service sheets were applicable to Group A models, the 300 series to Group B, the 400 series to Group C, the 500 series to Group D and the 600 series to Group M. In addition, there were a 700 series applicable to mechanical maintenance and an 800 series for electronic service and wiring diagrams. Both the 700 and 800 series of service sheets contained information that was not model specific but was applicable across multiple model groups.Unfortunately, as these service sheets were issued individually and at random times, the numbering sequence within any group is, at times, illogical and not necessarily consecutive. Consequently, assembling those individual sheets into a publication that serves as a model specific workshop manual is a somewhat difficult task and owners of BSA motor cycles are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the appropriate selection from the multitude of reprints that have recently flooded the on-line marketplace. Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb-bound photocopies that are scanned and printed complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned', 'used' or even 'refurbished'! In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles.The most complete compilation of the 1945 and onwards service sheets was issued by BSA in the form of a 'dealer only' ring binder that contained all of the individual service sheets totaling to almost 500 pages, it is extremely scarce and difficult to find. This manual includes the 27 service sheets (84 pages) published by BSA under part number 00-4020. However, an additional 15 service sheets have been added from that 'dealer only' publication, to produce a single manual containing 42 service sheets (150 pages) that cover the 1948 to 1966 rigid, spring frame, swing arm D1, D3, D5 and D7 Bantam. Obviously, as the 1966 D10 and the 1968 to1970 D14 models share many mechanical similarities with the D7, this manual will also be of use to owners of those later models. Please note that service sheets other than those in the 500 series that are included in this publication may also contain data that is applicable to 'other' model groups, as that was the original intention. For additional information the reader is directed to 'The Book of the BSA Bantam' (ISBN 9781588502100) which covers all Bantam models from 1948 to 1971.

Ford Big-Block Parts Interchange
The photos in this edition are black and white.Get a complete look at Ford Big-Block parts interchange and availability from author George Reid, a Ford expert and historian.Engine components covered in Ford Big-Block Parts Interchange include cranks, rods, pistons, camshafts, engine blocks, intake and exhaust manifolds, carburetors, distributors, and more. Expanding from the previous edition of High-Performance Ford Parts Interchange that covered both small- and big-block engines in one volume, this book cuts out the small-block information and devotes every page to the MEL, FE and 385 series big-blocks from Ford, which allows for more complete and extensive coverage.Over the course of performance car history, and specifically muscle car history, big-block engines are particularly beloved, and for good reason. Not only are they the essence of what a muscle car is, but before modern technology and stroker engines, they were also the best way to make a lot of horsepower. All of the Detroit manufacturers had their versions of big-block engines, and Ford was no exception. Actually, Ford was somewhat unique in that it had two very different big-block engine designs during the muscle car era.The FE engine was a design pioneered in the late 1950s, primarily as a more powerful replacement for the dated Y-block design because cars were becoming bigger and heavier, and therefore, necessitated more power to move. What started as torquey engines meant to move heavyweight sedans morphed into screaming high-performance mills that won Le Mans and drag racing championships through the 1960s. By the late 1960s, the design was dated, so Ford replaced the FE design with the "385" series, also known as the "Lima" design, which was more similar to the canted-valve Cleveland design being pioneered at the same time. It didn't share the 1960s pedigree of racing success, but the new design was better in almost every way; it exists via Ford motorsports offerings to this day.

Honda 70 Enthusiast’s Guide
Author of Honda Mini Trail: Enthusiast's Guide, Jeremy Polson has put together another vintage Honda guide. It covers the third-best-selling Honda in American Honda history, the long-running Mini Trail CT-70, along with the CL, SL, and XL 72-cc motorcycles manufactured from 1969 to 1994. Polson begins with a brief introduction of the models that led to the first CL-70, and then jumps into a thorough analysis of the many models and iterations that Honda offered through the years.With more than 25 years of experience collecting, restoring, and selling more than 200 small-displacement Hondas, Polson is the ideal author for this must-have look at a group of Honda's most popular motorcycles.Despite the worldwide popularity of American Honda's 72-cc motorcycles, no other book on these models has been published, and the accuracy of information found on the Internet is suspect at best. It could be called the "Bible for Honda 72-cc collectors and enthusiasts," because this book presents facts and figures backed up by production dates, serial numbers, and dealer information found nowhere else.In addition to the hard facts, this book is filled with many rare photos that track the evolution of Honda's 72-cc motorcycles and unravels their mystery. Rare models covered include the first CT-70 "Silver Tags" with more than 30 features not found on the majority of later-model CT-70s, as well as many other low-production 72-cc motorcycles.

Riding 500cc Two Strokes to Canada in 1972
Our 1972 motorcycle ride took us on a four-thousand-mile trip from Arizona to Canada and back. Some nights we camped out along the highway; other nights we found a motel. Some days the rain was fierce and debilitating... but every day was fun and filled with great experiences and amazing landscapes. Each of us rode a 500cc two-stroke motorcycle on the journey. We had no cell phones, roadside assistance coverage, custom ear plugs, or sound systems. The attractions of the open road, Canada, and Yellowstone Park were very powerful. None of us worried about breaking down or the costs of the trip. We were filled with youthful confidence in ourselves and our machines. The three of us had places to go and places to see. And we made it!
Trans Am & Firebird Restoration
The photos in this edition are black and white. The Trans Am and Firebird were distinctly different than their cousin, the Chevy Camaro, and many Trans Am and Firebird models became stand-out muscle cars of their era. In fact, when the high-performance wars in Detroit subsided in the early 1970s, the Trans Am remained as the sole surviving muscle car. Some second-generation Pontiac F-Body cars are affordable while others are extremely rare and valuable. In particular, the 1970-1974 Pontiac Super Duty Trans Ams, 1970-1973 Firebird Formulas, and 1976 Firebird Limited Editions command high sale prices while the 1970s Trans Am 6.6 "Smokey and the Bandit" cars are still affordable and appreciating in value. Melvin Benzaquen of Classic Restoration Enterprises has restored dozens of these cars. In this revealing guide, all crucial aspects of restoration are covered, including engine, driveline, interior, trim, electrical system, brakes, steering, and suspension. A special focus is placed on performing common body restoration procedures. Chapters also include VIN decoding, planning, preparation, tools, and painting techniques. Step-by-step photos accompanied by in-depth and detailed captions explain how to perform each stage of the restoration process. Pontiac Firebird and Trans Am owners are loyal and dedicated to the preservation of these storied high-performance models and therefore demand an accurate and faithful restoration. The magnitude and variety of work in the restoration process can be overwhelming and that's why a complete restoration guide by an acknowledged expert is so important. Now, in this authoritative and comprehensive guide, you have the tools you need to get started on your Trans Am or Firebird restoration.

Triumph Bonneville and TR6 Motorcycle Restoration Guide
Triumph's Bonneville and its sibling, the TR6, are two of the most revered models in all of motorcycling. Distinguished by their handsome lines and pace-setting performance, the Bonneville and Tiger ruled the streets and race tracks from their introduction in the late 1950s through Triumph's golden age in the 1960s. Devotion to the marque remained strong even as the sun slowly set on the company's fortunes in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The original Triumph's demise in 1983 simply served to cement the legendary status of its long-lived top guns, the Bonneville and TR6. Today the Bonnie and Tiger are highly sought-after classics-machines whose pedigree demands correct mechanical restoration and accurate refinishing. Triumph Bonneville and TR6 Motorcycle Restoration Guide: 1956-1983 contains all the information needed to guarantee the correct restoration of your classic. More than 250 photos and extensive technical appendices supplement Triumph expert David Gaylin's thoroughly researched text.

Norton 850 and 750 Commando Workshop Manual All Models from 1970 to 1975 (Part Number 06-5146)
172 pages, and more than 140 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. Owners of Norton Commando motorcycles are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the selection of an appropriate workshop manual from the multitude of originals and reprints that have recently flooded the on-line marketplace. Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb-bound photocopies that are scanned and printed complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles. The Norton Commando model range is especially subjected to incorrect identification by these 'bedroom sellers' and you are encouraged to read the paragraph below to help identify the correct manual for your model.During the 1968 to 1978 Commando model run there were 4 different manuals published by the factory: The original 52 page 750cc manual (part number 06-3062) is applicable to the 1968 to1970 models ONLY that were fitted with the external rev-counter drive and/or the Atlas style exhaust (refer to ISBN 9781588502421). This original manual was followed by part number 06-3419 which covers the 1970 to1973 750cc models ONLY. The next, and most comprehensive manual, part number 06-5146, was published in 1973 and the 850cc data was added making this manual applicable to the entire range of 750cc & 850cc models from 1970 to 1975. Finally, with the introduction of the electric start, left side gear change, rear disc brake Mark 3 models in 1975, a separate manual part number 00-4224 was published which is specific to the 1975 to 1978 MKIII 850cc series from engine no. 325001 & frame no.

ALFA ROMEO 750 & 101 SERIES GIULIETTA 1300cc (1955-1964) & 101 SERIES GIULIA 1600cc (1962-1965) WORKSHOP MANUAL
With 340 pages, and more than 500 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches, this is possibly the most complete workshop manual for the Alfa Romeo 750 & 101 series of automobiles. It includes: A reprint of the September 1958 factory Workshop Manual (No.637). The 12-page 'Transmission Appendix' from the December 1957 manual (No.611). The 15-page 1962 'Enclosure to the Shop Manual-Technical Characteristics' (No.854) plus the 1963 and 1964 'Technical Characteristics' publications for the 1600cc models (27 pages). Introduced in 1954, the initial 750 Series Giulietta was replaced by the 101 Series Giulietta in 1959. Both the 750 and 101 models were powered by a 1300cc (1290cc) engine. The engine capacity was increased in 1962 with the introduction of a 1600cc (1570cc) unit. Co-incident with this engine update, the Giulietta name was changed to Giulia, although they still retained their original 101 Series designation. From 1962 onwards, the updated Giulietta continued to be sold under the Giulia name until they were replaced by the all-new 105 Series Giulia-based models in 1965. As the predominance of the basic mechanical components of the 750 and 101 models remained unchanged during their 1954-1965 production run, the original Giulietta workshop manual was considered adequate and the factory supplemented it with the publication of 'Technical Characteristics' booklets (1963 & 1964) that updated the Factory manual with technical data specific to the 1600cc equipped cars. Timeline of the English language manuals issued by the Alfa factory for the 750 & 101 Series Giulietta and Giulia models: The first English language Workshop Manual (Part No.577 - 600 copies) was issued in May 1957 and it consisted of 14 individual booklets in a ring binder. In addition, a separate booklet numbered 15 was added a little later that was identified as 'Special Repair Data for the 'Sprint Veloce, Spider and Super Spider'.In December 1957, Alfa issued 1000 copies of a softbound workshop manual (Part No.611) that combined the booklets from the May 1957 publication into a single volume. It should be noted that booklet 14 'Special Tools and Equipment' was omitted from this edition and that the images are of poor quality. In September 1958, another 1000 copies of a softbound single volume manual (Part No.637) was issued and the images in this manual are almost photo quality. This edition also included the previously missing 'Special Tools' section. However, for some unknown reason the 12-page appendix to the transmission section from the December 1957 edition was omitted. This same part number (637) was reprinted by the factory in September 1961 (1000 copies). Finally, in November 1962, Alfa issued 2000 copies of a 15-page booklet 'Enclosure to the Shop Manual - Technical Characteristics' (Part No.854). This booklet expanded the technical data for the 1300cc models that was previously included in 'Technical Specifications' section of both the ring bound and softbound workshop manuals. However, in 1962, the Giulietta sport models: Sprint, Sprint Special and Spider were fitted with the new 1600cc engine and the Giulietta Series 101 name was dropped but they continued to be sold under the Giulia name (as 101 Series vehicles) until they were replaced by the all-new 105 Series Giulia-based models in 1965. Consequently, for the sake of completeness, the 20-page October 1963 'Technical Characteristics' booklet (Part No. 955 -1000 copies) for the 1600cc Giulia Ti, Spider & Sprint and the 7-page October 1964 'Technical Characteristics' for the Giulia Spider Veloce should be a required addition to this list of manuals for the 750 and 101 Series models.
NORTON 1960-1970 LIGHTWEIGHT AND HEAVYWEIGHT TWIN CYLINDER WORKSHOP MANUAL 250cc TO 750cc. INCLUDING THE 1968-1970 COMMANDO
140 pages, and more than 140 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. The original Norton factory "Twin Cylinder" workshop manual contained maintenance and repair data for both the lightweight and heavyweight Norton twins manufactured between 1960 and 1968, including the 750cc Atlas model, which was in production from 1962-1968. As many of the mechanical attributes from the Atlas series were carried over into the early Norton Commando models, we felt that the original "Twin Cylinder" manual was somewhat lacking as it did not include repair data for the early Commando that evolved from the Atlas. Consequently, we have updated and expanded this Floyd Clymer edition of the original "Twin Cylinder" manual to include the OEM Norton manual (part no. 06-3062) for the 1968-1970 Commando 750cc models that were fitted with the Atlas style exhaust and external rev-counter drive to the timing cover (Beginning with engine no. 126125 - February 1968) and the early camshaft driven contact breaker models (from engine no. 131257 - March 1969). While there is some duplication between the Atlas and Commando repair information, we felt that the Commando manual should be included in its entirety in order to 'complete' the coverage of the original "Twin Cylinder" manual from 1960 through the 1970 model year. It should also be noted that this manual includes significant maintenance and repair information for the AMC Norton/Matchless G15 hybrids that were manufactured from 1963-1967, engine numbers 107388 to 124371.IMPORTANT NOTE: Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb bound photocopies that are scanned and published complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles. However, VelocePress.com has been publishing licensed reprints of motorcycle and automobile manuals since 2003 and our publications have earned excellent reviews worldwide so you can be assured you are purchasing a quality product.We are pleased to offer this combined reprint of the Factory "Twin Cylinder" and "Commando" (06-3062) Workshop manuals. Models covered are: Lightweight Models: Jubilee 250cc (1960-1966) Navigator 350cc (1961-1965) Electra 400cc (1963-1965).Heavyweight Models: Model 88 500cc (1960-1966) Model 99 600cc (1960-1962) 650SS 650cc (1962-1968)Atlas 750cc (1962-1968) G15 750cc (1963-1967 AMC Norton/Matchless Hybrid)Commando 750cc (1968-1970 models only) IMPORTANT: Please note that the 750cc Commando manual is only applicable to the 1968-1970 models. Owners of later Commando models are directed to our 1970-1975 manual (ISBN 9781588502438) and MKIII owners to our 1975-1978 manual (ISBN 9781588502445).
Bridgestone Motorcycles 350gtr & 350gto Technical Handbook, Tuning for Competition and Parts Catalogues
178 pages, 203 illustrations, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. A previously unpublished manual from the Floyd Clymer archives. This manual is a compilation of extremely scarce and difficult-to-find original factory publications for the Bridgestone 350GTR and 350GTO series of motorcycles. The factory publications included are: The 350GTR 'Technical Handbook' (Workshop Manual) publication number T7350E. The 350GTR 'Parts Catalogue' publication number P7350WO. The 350GTO 'Parts Catalogue' publication number P9350GTOWO, plus the appropriate pages from 'Tuning Up for Competition' publication number L8TUP. During the time they were in production, Bridgestone (Motorcycles) published 'Technical Handbooks' or, more appropriately, 'Workshop Manuals' for their various models. These factory issued workshop manuals were produced in small quantities and are scarce and difficult to find in today's market. In addition, the factory also published 'Parts Catalogues' which included exploded parts diagrams that are a useful tool for restoration work or even general maintenance tasks. These factory 'Parts Catalogues' were also re-printed by Rockford Motors but, unfortunately, many of the diagrams were reduced in size (some to less than a quarter page) making the details difficult to see. This manual also includes a re-print of the original factory 'Bridgestone350 GTR & 350GTO Parts Catalogues' with full page exploded parts diagrams. Rockford Motors also published repair 'manuals' but, unfortunately, the quality of the images were degraded in the re-print process (that was available at that time) and some of them are so poor that they are of little use. By utilizing both the original factory 'Technical Handbook' and 'Parts Catalogues' in the production of this combined manual, we have hopefully provided the reader with quality enhanced images that are far superior to those in the earlier Rockford reprints. As can be expected from a factory publication, there is adequate detailed text and diagrams to assist in major refurbishing or even a complete mechanical renovation making it an invaluable resource for collectors of these iconic motorcycles and we are pleased to be able to offer this reprint as a service to all Bridgestone 350GTR & 350GTO owners and enthusiasts worldwide.

My Epic Ride of 2020
Can you imagine riding a motorcycle alone back and forth across the country during the COVID-19 pandemic? Well, the author of this book was just dedicated (or crazy) enough to do just that. From Georgia through the Carolinas into Old Virginia on the first day to the capital of California by day 12 to the Oregon Coast, Yellowstone National Park, Mount Rushmore and on to Boston by day 24. Days 25 and 26 were spent getting back home and checking off a few more US highway sections for his bucket list.This book allows the reader to follow the 10,268-mile, 26-day, motorcycle journey by the author traversing 29 states while completing two of the four longest US highways in the process - US 50 and US 20. Starting out from hometown Augusta, Georgia, the author set out to not only travel across the country on a motorcycle, but to do so alone and to visit as many Harley-Davidson(R) dealerships as he could along the way. There were 33 in all that were open at the time he was able to ride through the respective towns and eight more he visited to obtain photographic proof of a visit.Being somewhat of a history buff of sorts, the author also points out many historically significant facts about the towns through which he traveled. The many references cited throughout the book are indexed to a reference and quotation list in the back, where the author provides the actual quotation along with references for those who wish to look further into the details.The book takes a look at our great country through the vantage point of traveling on two wheels in the wide-open spaces, so to speak. Many of the included photos are extracted from thousands captured by a "dash cam" mounted on the handlebar as well as those taken with the author's cell phone camera. The use of a selfie stick/tripod device aided in the process of capturing those photos. It is the intent of the author to take the reader into the experience of riding as much as possible with words and photographs.In addition, the author also recounts the completion of riding significant portions of several US highways on his bucket list, hopefully, the subject of another book or two on motorcycle adventures. All this at 65 years of age and during the COVID-19 pandemic.Join in the adventure by cracking the book open and taking in the contents in your mind's eye.
Obsessions Die Hard
The Adventure of a Lifetime Obsessions Die Hard is the story of Ed Culberson's determination to fulfill his dream. As a teenager he was fascinated with the Pan-American Highway System, which runs the length of North and South America. In his early forties, he acquired another passion--motorcycling. It was only natural that he would merge the two. Culberson, then a retired U.S. Army officer, wanted to ride his motorcycle along the Pan-American Highway's entire route between Alaska and Argentina. However, in the Dari矇n region of eastern Panama and western Colombia the road is broken by an 80-mile gap filled with jungles, rain forests, rivers, and swamps, forcing travelers to detour around it by boat or plane. The area is so inhospitable and unexplored that a myth about its impenetrability has evolved over the centuries, and a curse aimed at Dari矇n trespassers shrouds the region. But the Dari矇n Gap, known as el tap籀n del Dari矇n--the Stopper--didn't dim Culberson's dream. It became his obsession. In the face of staggering obstacles, Culberson suffers failure before meeting success, encountering killer bees, arrest by a corrupt law officer, cycling injuries, and back-breaking labor to get himself and "Amigo," his motorcycle, through the torturous jungles and swamps. He also encounters strangers who become friends, including Cuna Indians who guide him and share his triumphs. A story of one man's struggle with his own obsession, this is an amazing tale of human endurance and perseverance. All royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to ALS of Texas.
Automotive Machining
The photos in this edition are black and white. Maximize the potential of your engine build by using the automotive machining procedures, including cylinder boring, align boring/honing, decking, valve seat cutting, cam tunnel boring, and much more.A detailed, authoritative, and thorough automotive engine machining guide for the hard-core enthusiast has not been available until now. Mike Mavrigian, editor of Engine Building Professional, walks you through each important machining procedure. A stock 300-hp engine build has far different requirements than a 1,000-hp drag race engine, and Mavrigian reveals the different machining procedures and plans according to application and engine design. He also shows you how to inspect, measure, and evaluate components so you can make the best machine work choices. Multi-angle valve jobs, altering rocker arm ratios, re-conditioning connecting rods, and machining and matching valvetrain components are also covered.Machining is an essential part of high-performance engine building and stock engine rebuilding. Although you may not own the expensive tooling and machining to perform all or any of the machining required for a quality build, understanding the principles, procedures, and goals for machining is vital so you can guide the machining process when outsourced. Classic and older engines typically require extensive machining and almost every major component of engine, including block, heads, intake, crankshaft, and pistons, requires some sort of machining and fitment. Whether you're an enthusiast engine builder or prospective machining student who wants to pursue a career as an automotive machinist, this book will provide insight and in-depth instruction for performing the most common and important machining procedures.

Royal Enfield Bullet
Despite being one of the most successful motorcycles of all time, the Royal Enfield Bullet has had a very chequered history. Its story begins in the 1930s and by the 1950s it was at the height of its popularity in post-War Britain. Then it became a stalwart of the Indian Army and manufacture transitioned from Britain to India. The near-collapse of the Royal Enfield marque in the 1990s almost meant the end of this classic motorbike, but with the involvement of the Eicher Group from 2001 onwards, the updated Bullet generated new interest and renewed its original commercial success, just like a phoenix rising from the ashes. With more than 200 photographs, this book describes the origins of the Royal Enfield company and the pre-war Bullets from 1932 and the relaunch of the Bullet in 1949 with its radical swinging-arm frame. Derivative models such as the 350 and 500, as well as those for competition and road are covered as well as specials such as diesels, V-twins, Egli and big-bore Bullets. The development story behind the lean-burn, electric-start and 5-speed updates is discussed as well as the UCE - the all-new Bullet from 2008 and the Classic and its design story. Finally, the evolution beyond the Bullet is covered which includes the Continental GT and Himalayan 650 twins.
MOTORCYCLE ROAD TESTS 1949-1953 (From the Motor Cycle magazine UK)
In 1952, Floyd Clymer published the first in a two-part series of motorcycle road test books that had originally appeared in the UK magazine, Motor Cycle. Obviously, these road tests focused on UK manufactured machines and European models that had UK distributors. The initial 1952 publication was followed by a second in 1954 that, in addition to motorcycle road tests, also included scooter, three wheeler and cyclemotor tests. With 120 pages, profusely illustrated with 226 images plus specifications and performance information for each model, this publication combines both the 1952 and 1954 books into a single edition that includes 49 Motorcycle, 2 Scooter, 2 Three Wheeler and 7 Cyclemotor road tests. At the time of publication, these books generated little interest with US motorcycle enthusiasts as Harley Davidson and Indian were the most widely accepted forms of two-wheel transportation. US based distributors of UK machines were scarce and the imports from Japan were still a number of years in the future. However, many of the motorcycles tested are extremely collectible today and independent road tests such as these, which were conducted at the time when these models were first introduced, will be of interest to owners of those machines as they highlight the pros and cons of each model and provide a unique comparison to their competitors. The front cover of this book provides a detailed list of the machines featured in the individual road tests. However, the various manufacturers included are as follows. MOTORCYCLES: Ariel, Bown, B.S.A., D.M.W., Dot, Excelsior, Francis-Barnett, Greeves, Indian (Brave), James, Norman, Norton, Royal Enfield, Sunbeam, Tandon, Triumph, Velocette & Vincent. SCOOTERS: Vespa & Lambretta. 3 WHEELERS: Bond & Reliant. CYCLEMOTORS: Berini, Cucciolo, Mini-Motor, Velo-Solex, Cyclemaster, Power Pak & B.S.A. Winged Wheel.
Porsche 911 2.7 - 3.0 - 3.2 Litre 1973-1989 Workshop Manual
248 pages, 311 illustrations plus an additional 66 pages of wiring diagrams, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. Updated from its previous format to include the later 3.2 Litre models through 1989. This Floyd Clymer publication includes complete technical data, service and maintenance information and comprehensive detailed instructions for the repair and overhaul of all major and minor mechanical and electrical components for the 1973 to 1989 Porsche 911G Series, 2.7, 3.0 and the 3.2 Litre models.In its original format, this manual covered the Porsche 911 models through the 1978 model year. However, additional information for the earlier 2.7 and 3.0 Litre models that was not available at the time the original manual was published, is now included or appended to each chapter in this revised publication. While this manual focuses on the 1973-1989 G series 911, much of the information is also applicable to the earlier 2.4 Litre (1971-73) models destined for the U.S.A., Australia, Japan and Canada that, due to emission requirements, were fitted with Bosch mechanical fuel injection (FIP). Consequently, this manual will also be of interest to owners of those 2.4 litre fuel injected models. The manual is broken down into the following sections: Engine, Fuel System including Bosch mechanical fuel injection (FIP) continuous injection (CIS) and digital fuel injection (DME). Ignition Systems including Capacitive Discharge CDS, CDI and DME, Cooling, Heating & Exhaust Emission Systems, Clutch, Manual Transmission & Sportomatic Transmission, Rear Suspension & Drive Axles, Front Suspension, Steering, Brakes, Electrical System and Body. There is also an appendix to the rear of the manual that includes Technical Specifications and Wiring Diagrams. While reprints of the factory manual are readily available, they are relatively expensive, and we are pleased to be able to offer this reasonably priced alternative as a service to all 1973-1989 Porsche 911 enthusiasts worldwide.

Chevy Nova 1968-1974
The photos in this edition are black and white. Learn how to build a killer 1968-1974 Chevy Nova for the street or strip from veteran author and Chevy expert Wayne Scraba.Chevy Nova 1968-1974: How to Build and Modify includes detailed information on driveline upgrades, rear suspension options for the ultimate hook, front-end suspension and chassis components for good handling and weight transfer, excellent brake upgrades, engine swap options, cooling system upgrades, and more.There was a time when the Chevrolet Nova was considered a budget option, a model engineered primarily for the price-conscious customer. Certainly, performance models were already in Chevrolet's fold. With the Camaro, the Corvette, and the Chevelle leading the way, why would Chevy need another performance model? Well, savvy Chevy customers knew that you could get a really tricked-out Nova right from the factory with SS packages and big-block 396 engines along with performance transmissions and gearing for a fair amount less than an equally equipped Camaro. As a bonus, Novas were lighter weight too. It was the performance bargain of the Chevy lineup.Fast forward to today. The first-generation Camaros cost a small fortune, and while Novas have held their value quite well, they are still a performance bargain compared to the other Chevy performance models of the era. Not only are they more affordable than Camaros, but you can do a whole lot to make them really fast. Focusing on quarter-mile performance, Wayne expertly covers all of your options for a strong-running street Nova, a street-strip combo package, or all-out drag racing options. If you want to build your Nova into a quarter-mile warrior, this book is an essential tool for success.
Full-Size Ford Restoration

Colin, president of Pennsylvania's Three Rivers chapter of the Galaxie Club puts his decades of experience restoring these cars into this single volume. Featuring step-by-step procedures on body, driveline, chassis, and interior components, Colin shows, with more than 400 photos and text, how to restore a full-size Ford. Crucial projects, such as rust repair and driveline maintenance, help guarantee that your Ford will be sound and solid for years to come after the restoration.Ford's full-size model change from 1959 to 1960 was seen as a big departure from the swerving lines of the 1950s. Slow to start on sales, Ford's full-size production grew year after year, peaking with 648,010 units produced in 1963. It was an all-time best for the Galaxie line and its sister nameplates. Eight appearance and performance offerings were applied to the full-size Ford line including the Fairlane, Galaxie, Ranch Wagon, Country Sedan, Country Squire, Courier, 300, and Custom, which made each car unique.The Galaxie and its full-size stablemates continue to be a strong force at car shows and in the marketplace; they create an even deeper following for these cars. Adding a detailed restoration book to the full-size restorer's arsenal will surely aid in bringing more of these Fords back to life and back on the road.
Reducing Particulate Emissions in Gasoline Engines

Jeep, Dana & Chrysler Differentials
The photos in this edition are black and white. Over the last 40 years, millions of Chrysler, AMC, and Jeep vehicles have used these differentials, propelling these high-performance vehicles to victory on the street, in drag racing, and other applications. Chrysler used the Dana 60 and BorgWarner Sure-Grip high-performance differentials in the Challenger, Charger, Barracuda, Super Bee and many other renowned Chrysler muscle cars. These differentials have been tied to historic powerhouse engines, such as the Chrysler Magnum and Hemi V8s in stock car, drag racing, and other forms of racing, making history in the process. Jeep CJs and Cherokees have used the Dana 44 and AMC 20 and put these differentials under tremendous loads, which often requires frequent rebuilds.
