Automotive Wiring
| Automotive wiring is a primary skill required for proper completion and safe operation of any custom build, whether it is a traditional custom, hot rod, or classic daily driver.
While restorers typically have the option of buying a new or reproduction wiring harness, custom enthusiasts often have few options except to figure out how to do it themselves.
Automotive Wiring guides builders through every step from determining what components they need, to selecting wire type and gauge, methods of connection, and other considerations. The book includes numerous charts showing typical configurations and suggested installations. A troubleshooting section lends a hand in tracking down the inevitable problems that can arise. |
How to Paint Flames
| If your vehicle is fine under the hood and you're just looking to do a little body work, we can help with that, too.
Custom paint jobs are more popular than ever, and no form of custom painting is "hotter" than the flame job. The newest styles, tools, and techniques are described and shown in this newest edition of the best-selling How to Paint Flames.
This book explains how to design the best-looking flames for a particular vehicle, how to transfer that design to the vehicle, and how to apply the paint. The process of flame painting is broken into major steps so that the reader can go as far as they feel their skills and confidence will take them. |
