VW Classic Beetle is the latest in the Maintenance and Upgrades
Manual series which are based on real-life experience and written
by expert authors. The original air-cooled VW Beetle is a hugely
distinctive and popular classic car with over 21 million produced
over a 65-year period. It is also an ideal starter classic for
anyone looking to get their hands dirty. This new book includes: an
illustrated timeline to the various models produced and a useful
buyers' guide with a systematic approach. There is information on
workshop tools and equipment and a service and maintenance
schedule. How to maintain all aspects of the engine, transmission,
brakes and bearings, suspension and electrics are covered.
Information on modifications and upgrades for the engine, brakes
and suspension including front beam, dropped spindles, spring
plates, air ride, and wheels and tyres is included. Troubleshooting
tips for when your car won't start or won't go into gear is given
and finally, tips on restoration of the paint and bodywork, or
respray. There are useful chapters on fitting an ISOFIX base for a
child safety seat, as well as fire suppression.
The 3-cylinder Triumph Trident and BSA Rocket 3 were developed to
compete with Honda's forthcoming 750cc motorcycle. Initially they
did not compare well - although very fast, they lacked
sophistication and their quirky styling was offputting - and the
decision was made to suspend production. This was not the most
auspicious start, but a fightback was initiated and in 1971 the
factory race team had a triumphant year including placing 1st, 2nd
and 3rd at the Daytona 200. With over 250 photographs, the full
rollercoaster-ride history of these bikes is described, including:
how the bikes came to be, including a timeline of significant
events; a year-by-year account of the evolution of the bikes,
through the T150, T160 and Rocket 3; the story of the Hurricane;
the full racing history and, finally, the Triumph 3-cylinder bikes
today.
The Rootes Story – The Chrysler Years focuses on the Rootes Group
during the 1960s and 70s, the vehicles produced by the company, the
people that created them and the events that led to Rootes selling
out to Chrysler Corporation of America and eventual acquisition by
the French Peugeot company. A valuable backdrop to the events is
provided throughout the book by ex- Rootes employees and
management. Chronicles the Rootes Group’s efforts to survive as a
major car and truck manufacturer in Britain’s turbulent 1960s and
1970s. From a position as a respected global name in manufacturing,
the Rootes Group found itself struggling to compete in a new
buyers’ market, in which foreign competition was starting to
overtake British manufacturers. Despite the challenges that
confronted them, Rootes designed and built some of the most popular
cars of the period: the Hillman Minx and Super Minx, the Singer
Vogue and the Humber Sceptre, and the iconic but ill-fated Hillman
Imp, as well as some of the most rugged and well-purposed vans and
trucks, built by Commer, Karrier and Dodge. The book highlights the
competition pedigree of the Sunbeam Rapier, the Alpine, the Imp and
the Ford V8-engined Tiger. Famous names such as Paddy Hopkirk,
Rosemary Smith and Peter Procter all give their stories as works
drivers for Rootes, while engineers at ‘comps’ tell the
background stories of how races and rallies were won and lost.
Andrew Cowan, Rootes’ works rally driver and winner of the 1968
London–Sydney Marathon in a Hillman Hunter, shares his story in
what was a remarkable and unexpected victory for Rootes. This
complex story is told through the eyes of ex-Rootes and Chrysler
personnel, giving ‘from the horse’s mouth’ accounts of the
company and its exploits. Geoff Carverhill takes you inside the
boardroom, into the drawing office and on to the production line to
give the reader an insider’s view of Rootes, Chrysler and
Peugeot.

David Bache's superbly styled hatchback gave Rover a highly
distinctive large executive-class car in the 1970s and 1980s, and a
successful motorsport programme in the first half of the 1980s only
added to its desirability. The original carburetted V8 and
6-cylinder petrol models were supplemented by injected V8s and by
4-cylinder petrol and diesel types to widen the range's appeal -
and yet sales would always be disappointing, thanks in no small
measure to variable and sometimes simply awful build quality.
Nevertheless, the SD1 remains a favourite with enthusiasts today,

With the end of the Second World War, it was not long before
increasing wealth, cheaper cars, and social pressures made a family
car the aspiration of thousands. Ford, Hillman, Standard, Morris
and Vauxhall became household names, and the streets of Britain's
suburbs began to fill with modern-looking saloon cars, designed to
transport mother, father and 2.4 children with ease, if not speed.
This illustrated book looks at the British cars that were available
to the post-war family, and also some of the foreign makes that had
an important place in the market, and which had a great influence
on the British-made cars that followed.
