This do-it-yourself workshop manual has been specially written for the owner who wishes to maintain his vehicle and carry out the bulk of his own servicing and repairs. Step-by-step instructions and many illustrations provide most dismantling, overhauling and assembling operations. Certain assemblies require the use of expensive special tools and, although information is included, it is recommended that these go to the garage. A portfolio of contemporary articles drawn from three continents leads us through the fascinating development of the Porsche 356 - the car that started the Porsche dynasty. Included are road and comparison tests, new model introductions, a road research report, plus full specifications and performance data. Advice is also given on acquiring a pre-owned example.
