The SS100 is one of the most desirable and best known British sports cars of the 1930s. They were built by SS Cars Ltd which went on to become Jaguar. Only 300 or so cars were made in 3-1⁄2 years between 1935 and 1939.Today these cars are rare and valuable. This book provides fine detail of every component that originally went into building an SS100. As such it is a resource for those aiming to restore an SS100 to the state in which it left the factory eighty or more years ago. Much of the detail also relates to the other SS models produced concurrently with the SS100. The author has more than 40 years of experience in restoring SS cars and much of this book is based around his restoration of the 1938 31⁄2-litre SS100 with chassis number 39080. The book includes coverage of the many changes introduced by the factory during the model's production. Commentary is supported by more than 300 photographs and drawings.

328 pages, 186 black & white illustrations, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. This is a faithful reproduction of the 1962 Floyd Clymer U.S.A. Edition of the same title. While the primary focus of this publication utilizes 1960's and prior motorcycles as examples, the reader is reminded that engineering theory and the laws of physics do not change and as such, the information it contains is still relevant today. Consequently, this publication is indispensible to those either contemplating modification to a current model or the construction of a 'special' for any form of motorcycle competition. Predominantly a technical work, it is written in terms easily understood by the layman. While it includes geometry and math formulae the reader will be aptly rewarded if they take a moment to comprehend the significance of the examples. Consequently, 'Motorcycle Engineering' is considered by many knowledgeable motorcycle enthusiasts to be the best book ever written on how to construct, improve, modify and fine tune a motorcycle from the 'ground up'. It is our pleasure to offer this reprint to all motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide.
