Book Reviews

After looking at so many books published on (1) how to identify, (2) how to restore, (3) standard catalog, (4) and resource books on 1964-1972 Chevelles in general and Super Sport Chevelles in particular, I'm here to share my views on these books. My general conclusion is not many really do research on what they are writing about. While there is a wealth of information contained in these books, there is also a great deal of misinformation.

Being an author of "published" reference material myself, 1966/1967Chevelle Reference CDs, 1970 SS396/SS454 Atlanta/Baltimore/Kansas City build sheet decoder CD, and 2 books listed below, I realize how difficult and challenging a task it is to research and compile data then present it in a readable and understandable format.

Feel free to contact me if you feel my "technical" analysis is incorrect and please try to be specific about your views.
