1953 Chilton's Motor Age Flat Rate and Service Manual.  Sold as a restoration project.

I think it covers all USA made autos from about 1940 years up to 1950.  It is from the era of the $3.00 per hour auto mechanic.

A huge manual with 1741 pages.  Hardcover.  Size 11 1/2 X 9 X 3 1/2 inches.  Weight 10 pounds

A great addition for anyone who restores classic cars.

This manual is getting rough with the stuck pages, needs work to preserve.  Overall wear and aging,  faults,  wrinkles.  Cover worn on edges.  Cover is loose and torn in the spline area.  Pages are coming loose in blocks.  Many of the pages are sticking togeather, I checked a dozen or so and they seem to pull apart with some partial transfer.  I took a quick look see and pages seem all mostly clean with only a few smears from handling.   See photos for condition.

I will combine shipping whenever possible to reduce your postage costs.

Barricehllo, Brawn and Button celebrate the Brawn Success The Brazilian Grand Prix was chaotic even before the lights went out to start the race. Qualifying was a nightmare with a constant deluge of rain soaking the track and Button seemed to have lost all chance of a win when he started 14th, with team mate – and chief rival for the championship – Barrichello on pole. The race saw Barichello suffer a puncture; Trulli and Sutil almost coming to blows after a coming together that also pitched Alonso out; Raikkonen lost his front wing and suffered a puncture and Kovalainen left the pits with his fuel hose attached, which sprayed fuel on Raikkonen and set fire to his car.
