4 out of 5 stars Comprehensive *MAINTENANCE* guide for Camaros   March 21, 2000
 20 out of 20 found this review helpful

This is a very comprehesive condensed version of the official mechanic's service manuals for 1967-1981 Camaros. It is not very easy to read, and you really need to have at least a little automotive background to understand parts of it. It tells you everything you need to know about servicing the Camaro, but it doesn't explain some things in sufficient detail for the first-time mechanic.

If you need instructions on how to service and maintain a Camaro (for example, tuning a carburetor), this book is probably only bested by its source, the official Chevrolet service manual for your car. However, this Chilton's manual is both less expensive and easier to find, and is an excellent place to start.

If you're looking for a restoration guide (meaning you're planning on repairing or rebuilding rather than servicing the car), you'd be better served by either Tom Currao & Ron Sessions' "Camaro Restoration Handbook" or Jason Scott's "Camaro Restoration Guide" (for 1967-1969 cars), depending on what sort of information you are looking for. Refer to my reviews of either of these books for more specific information.

My main complaint about the Chilton's manual is actually that it has a little too much information. Finding what I need to know for my 1969 SS Coupe can be a hassle, when I'm having to deal with every model and variant between 1967 and 1981. Now that I've acquired a copy of the service manual specific to my car, I generally use it first, then turn to the Chilton's guide if I still need information.


1 out of 5 stars It doesn't tell you anything.   December 15, 1999

This manual is the worst I've ever read, it doesn't include the positrack rear end, and only tells how to change the fluid. It tells you to disconect the negative battery cable to change the rear wiew miror.

To the person who entered the first review: That's because you should have some mechanical ability before attempting to work on your car. Jeez - learn to read. It's common sense how to disassemble and assemble most things in a car.


2 out of 5 stars This book tells you nothing.   December 13, 1998

This chiltons "total car care" doesn't tell you how to dissasemble or reassemble anything with any detail at all.
