This factory service manual reprint covers 1958 Ford cars, station wagons, Courier and Ranchero models, powered by 6-cylinder and V8 engines. It's a reproduction, which contains all of the original content for the shop manual that Ford prepared for their dealership mechanics back when these stylish models were brand new. That means the information is organized efficiently, accurately and completely. At 656 pages, you know the projects from small to large have been covered professionally. Inside this guide, you'll find not only well-written text instructions, but also a huge number and variety of visual aids such as tables, black and white photographs, cutaway views, illustrations, exploded views, wiring diagrams and more. It's the definitive source for working on these classics.
Do you need the "low down" on that retractable hardtop (pun intended, sorry!)? This book has it. A couple dozen pages worth, in fact. With explanations and directions for the operation, trouble shooting, electrical adjustments, mechanical adjustments, as well as the removal and installation of assemblies. The retractable hardtop is something at which to marvel. Especially utilizing 50s technology. It's quite a wonderful symphony of movement to watch that complete steel roof stow away into the luggage compartment. "Symphony" probably isn't the first word you'll use when it doesn't work. When that happens, you're going to want all the specs and details to get into the various areas of this classic piece of machinery. Lucky for you, it's all spelled-out here.
The hardtop isn't the only area covered in this 1958 Ford Car Shop Manual reprint. You'll find that it addresses all the major areas of these great cars such as engines, Fordomatic and Cruise-O-Matic transmissions, steering, brakes, suspension and much more. It's definitely the first tool you should use when the time is right for service and repair jobs to be completed on your vintage Ford.
