Title: Nothing for Restoring Woodies
Review: As a woodworker with 20 years of experience I was interested in what it would take to apply my craft to an automobile. More than half of this book is just a primer on basic finish carpentry and what types of woods were used in "woodies". A total of 4 pages is dedicated to the general project sequence of how to work on a woodie car but nothing about woodies themselves. There is no discussion of how a body is attached to a chassis, no discussion of any disassembly, use or types of fasteners nor is there any detailed discussion of the differences in "woodie" types. This book has many glossy pictures but it does not in anyway prepare you to build or restore a woodie. It does give a good overview of types of woods and finished but you can get that for less then half the price (and more detail) at your local hardware stores. Go to any Woodie website for more education on woodie restoration. Disappointing!
