This is the professional trade edition sold exclusively to the automotive service industry, not a consumer repair manual. It covers 1966 through 1973 model years for virtually every American and imported car sold in the US, with factory time, Chilton time, labor charges, OEM part numbers, and illustrated parts breakdowns showing approximately 25,000 individual parts. Makes covered include Camaro, Chevelle, Chevy II, Corvette, Mustang, Firebird, Pontiac, Cadillac Eldorado, Dodge, Plymouth, Challenger, Dart, Buick, Oldsmobile Toronado, Lincoln Continental, Mark III, AMC, Jeep, Volkswagen, Pinto, Vega, and many more. Also includes truck index, automatic transmission section, tow chart, and mechanics data.
This specific window of years, 1966 to 1973, covers the peak of the American muscle car era and the most actively collected and restored vehicles on the market today.
