Review from Classic Car Mart, UK May 2007 Veloce has a knack for launching new books with genuine appeal to the hands-on classic car owner – and the company’s latest addition to its Enthusiast’s Restoration Manual series is no exception. Classic Car Electrics is a 96-page softback title covering all aspects of most old cars’ electrical systems, and will prove invaluable to anybody who enjoys tinkering and who wants to understand the subject in more depth. Happily, it’s been written in a straightforward style, easy enough for even the most inexperienced of owners to understand – and that means no-nonsense, practical, sensible advice throughout. When it comes to the maintenance, repair and restoration of your classic’s electrics, this book is split into easy-to-navigate sections covering such essentials as basic circuit theory, batteries and dynamos, the starter motor, lighting, accessories, wiring and a whole lot more. Whatever the electrical problem with your car, or whichever area of its electrical system you want to learn more about, it should prove easy to find and simple enough to comprehend. Aided by colour photography and invaluable diagrams throughout, author Martin Thaddeus gets his electrical message across very effectively. For practical-minded enthusiasts everywhere, this is surely a worthwhile buy.
