1955 Pontiac Shop Manual

This 1955 Pontiac Shop Manual is a high quality reproduction of the original shop manual, which was written and published by Pontiac Motor Division for their dealership mechanics to use back when these fine cars were brand new. Inside this 400-plus page guide, you'll find general information followed by detailed sections regarding: lubrication, body, frame, front suspension, rear suspension, brakes, engine mechanical, engine cooling and oiling, engine fuel, engine clutch, transmission and gearshift control, fuel tank and exhaust, steering, wheels and tires, chassis sheet metal, electrical and instruments and accessories.

In addition to the well-written text instructions, you'll be pleased to find a huge number and variety of visual aids such as black and white photographs, tables, illustrations, charts, cutaway views, exploded views, wiring diagrams, and more. The text and visual tools together provide great clarity for getting the jobs done effectively and efficiently.

Maybe the time is right for you to turn some wrenches on your Strato-Streak 90 degree V8 Pontiac power plant and you need the "low down" on how to service that 287 cubic inch beauty. This guide has you covered. In 1955, the Pontiac V8 was a big deal. If you want to get (and keep) yours running at its best, be sure to trust these instructions taken from the "horses mouth". You know that these stylish cars are about a lot more than just pretty chrome. Be sure you have the correct details needed to take care of that list of projects for your classic Poncho, and then take it out to relive some fond memories...or, perhaps to create some new ones.

NOTE:  This is the MAIN manual.  For the air-conditioning needs of your '55 Pontiac, we highly recommend adding the 1955 Pontiac Air Conditioning Shop Manual.  It's a wonderful, factory-written supplement dedicated to helping you keep your cool. 

NOTE:  For details regarding the Hydra-Matic Drive, you'll definitely want to add the 1955 Pontiac Hydra-Matic Drive Shop Manual.  It's a detailed supplemental manual to get your transmission projects into gear.
