1959 Pontiac Shop Manual

This 1959 Pontiac Shop Manual by publisher Detroit Iron® is a high-quality, licensed, PRINT, reproduction of the outstanding one which was written and first published by the experts from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) - Pontiac Motor Division for use by their dealership mechanics.

Some might say the fine folks at Pontiac were a little ahead of their time. Perhaps they were just setting the standard for what was to come to the automotive industry.  Either way, Pontiac rolled out a beautiful and popular new look in 1959.  Their lower and longer bodies showed off a trim, elegant style.  Split grilles up front led the way, and there was plenty of power to be found under those stylish "V" shaped hoods.  The phrase "Wide-Track" was used in advertisements by Pontiac to describe to the public the look of their new stance and the change in the handling of these sleek models.

Underneath all of the glitz and glamour of your 1959 Pontiac, whether it is coated in Silvermist Gray, Jademist Green, Canyon Copper, or any of the other glorious colors which Pontiac sprayed that year, you'll find a great number of mechanical systems and components.  When the time is right for you to dig into service and repair procedures, be sure the first tool in your hand is this comprehensive service manual.  It contains 444 pages, which are loaded with factory specifications, step-by-step instructions and a huge number of black-and-white photographs, illustrations, cut-away views, exploded views, tables, charts and much more.  You'll have just what you need, at your fingertips, to take on all of those mechanical projects necessary to get (and keep) your classic Poncho running in top shape.  Need to know more?  Please click on the table of contents found on this page to see the enormity of subjects covered in this handy guide.
