 Rating:  - 240Z Owner Likes What He FoundThis book is great if you have an early Z car and need some pointers on how to restore/refresh your Z. A good mechanic would figure a lot of this out by using the factory repair manual, however there are tips and tricks here that the author gives you based on his hands-on tear down and rebuild that will save you time, money and effort in your pursuit of the perfect Z car.

If like myself you are modifying the car as you go, the book has only some useful points and makes a good edition to your zed library.

This book has 20-30 pages of exploded views of various areas on the cars and also has a list of retailers that sell parts and/or services for the ...
