Does anyone have these books?

What do you think of them?

[Ghoste]

I just ordered a set last week and expect them any day so I'll tell you my opinion then.

[JamieZ]

I have the e-body one.  They are expensive but a really great reference for figuring out what the correct fastener is for a particular location.  Even if you aren't doing a full nut and bolt restoration it's very nice to look up the length, head size, thread pitch, finish, etc for that missing fastener.

Thanks, I think I'm going to place an order for them

[Ghoste]

Mine arrived today and even though I haven't had a chance to look through them thoroughly yet, I can tell you there is an astonishing amount of information in them.  Not cheap, but if you are doing an oem resto well worth it.

[JB400]

I'll have to look into getting one.

Flagged for future reference

It's almost too much to give a fair report and certainly at this point, but with the three that pertain to the 2nd gen Charger there is a 7 inch stack of material to go through.

Add this one to your must read list as well:   http://www.amazon.com/In-Search-Lost-Time-Complete/dp/0812969642

World record holder for the longest novel ever written.

[Ghoste]

I haven't had to worry about that since university and I have no intention of revisiting it.

[JB400]

It's not on my must read list either.  Never even seen a copy of War and Peace, and don't attend to anytime soon.

[Ghoste]

Getting off topic but I was an English literature major and a history minor so too much of that clogs my shelves.

What a great resource, thanks for the heads up.   Sure beats what I've been doing which is driving the car to NAPA and Home Depot, running in and out to see which fasteners work...

[Ghoste]

As I go through them I'll try and give you all a better review but on first glance there is just too much for a Readers Digest version.
