Description
x174 pages with 145 illustrations, diagrams and charts, size 6-5/8 x 10-1/4 inches. This is a publication for those Ferrari enthusiasts that are tired of oversized and often overpriced coffee table books filled with page after page of photos of red Ferrari's and not much else.
This book contains all the technical data and statistics for the majority of the 1948 to 1958 Ferrari road and race cars. It was compiled by a knowledgeable author who lived in Modena at the time that these cars were being constructed, who was personally acquainted with Enzo Ferrari and had access to the factory documents during that time period. It includes the author's road test experiences, technical specifications, tune up, adjustments, maintenance and repair information, detailed technical drawings, exploded views, wiring diagrams and lubrication charts. This book is a 'must have' for any Ferrari enthusiast or lucky owner of one of these early cars and should be in the library of any true Ferraristi. Originally published by Floyd Clymer in 1960 under the similar title of 'The Ferrari Owner's Handbook', its description left much to be desired. For example, of the 174 pages there are 90 pages that are much closer to a repair and maintenance manual. Consequently, it's more of a technical manual than a handbook.
