Default Re: 1935-1936 Ford Model 51 Trucks - New Book

I hear you. I decided to write my book as a way to pass along what I've learned (in written form instead of just in my head) and to help me make sure my restoration is as accurate as I can make it and to make compromises knowingly.
The books the EFV8 Club sells are primarily descriptions of how they cars were built - parts, materials, finishes, etc.
I also collected information on how to repair and maintain my truck, and continue to do so. It's a harder job, in my opinion, to pull together the repair and maintenance information into a book. Most of the systems span multiple years and vehicles. It would be great to have a pre-war Ford maintenance and repair book with all the tips I read on Ford Barn. Maybe someone will pick up the torch ?????
