About This Item
Arcadia, CA: Post-Era Books, 1976 Post-Era Books, Arcadia, CA. 1976. Hardcover. First Edition. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: New. No DJ. Blue faux-leather boards and spine with bright gold lettering on spine and front board with picture in gold of old radiator repairman. 192 pp. The radiator, prominently positioned at the very forefront of the automobile became not only the life-blood of keeping a motor running but the subject for stylized effects. This comprehensive, step-by-step handbook is as valuable for the precision restorer now as it was for the small shop radiator mechanic for whom it was originally addressed. Coverage extends from the primitive, long-abandoned core constructions to the commercially efficient tubular and honeycomb types, variations of which were already then being used by the majority of car producers. Cooling system basics, particularly as fine points relate to the historic automobile, are reviewed in a special closing chapter. A clean pristine new copy from an old radiator shop.
