    I would run this one by the Wife but know the answer already.

    "No"

    And she wonders why I spend my free time in the Garages. #haynesmanual

    @mr_dude: "Based on a complete teardown and rebuild." I can see the joy in the teardown, but I would like to meet the person who had the mental fortitude to put it back together again. #haynesmanual

    @FTGDWolverineEdition'09: I'm sure there must be people who do, but they don't admit it. I checked the Hayne's website, and it assures customers that the PT Cruiser manual is sent to you in plain brown paper packaging. #haynesmanual

    Dad has several lithograph type ones with the individual systems mapped out for Citroen DS. They are definitely art and worth of the nice frame job he got for them. #haynesmanual

    I love these. They bring back that same sort of Christmas Morning feeling I used to get every time I would get a new (used) vehicle, which was inevitably a fixer-upper, and I'd immediately go get the Haynes or Chilton for it. I'd go over that thing page by page to figure out what projects I would take on first. I'd plan a month of sundays around cleaning the carbs, replacing the drum brakes, taking care of the timing problems... and for some reason that got me more excited about my new car than anything; the idea that with some elbow grease (and a lot of real grease) it would eventually be running like a champ.

    These are definitely on the pricey side, but as soon as they make one for a 1968 Chevy Malibu or a 1978 Honda 550 Four, I'm getting it.

    If you bring a girl back to your bachelor pad and she recognizes what car it is on the wall, make her breakfast in the morning.

    If she says, "hmm, I never had one of these for my E-Type," call her back the next day.

    If she takes a look at the electrical diagram hanging on your wall, and manages to diagnose your Golf's steering lock problem in one fell swoop, then marry her. #haynesmanual

    Cool Ford Capri, ROFL... Good one!

    Seriously though, I like them but I'd have as much luck hanging this in the house as I would with fine taxidermy work.

    @joneez helped you buy a new car: I bet you could clean it up and sell off a bunch of trim pieces on eBay. That'll pay for some go fast parts. And fire extinguishers.
