Restoration Books, Manuals and Guides

Old truck photoThere is no doubt that, for the true motorhead, restoring any vehicle to its former glory is a mandatory part of the hobby.

But in order to do the job right, you will need the right information beforehand, otherwise, the most simple restoration can take twice as long and cost twice as much. If you don't believe us, just ask anyone who's done a restoration under those circumstances.

Go Ahead... Restore it!

The Motor Bookstore offers quite a selection of automotive restoration manuals and guides, and these books — along with plenty of elbow grease, late nights in the garage and a generous sprinkling of choice words here and there — will insure that you will restore your car, truck or van, into a vehicle that you will be proud to drive and take to car shows.

DIY restorers may also be interested in adding a touch of nostalgia to their workshop, garage, den or office with a high-quality, Made in the U.S.A., repro vintage tin sign. Check out our great selection.
