Die Kraftfahrzeuge und ihre Instandhaltung (Reprint von 1961)
This reprint from 1961 is the standard work for motor mechanics, repair workshops, master courses, technical and driving schools from a time when electronics still played a minor role in automobile construction. In the first part, the author describes in detail the structure, mode of operation and the individual design components of the various engine concepts, and also explains assemblies, power transmission, chassis and electrical systems.
The text conveys the highly technical processes in an easy-to-understand and comprehensible manner and clearly explains the basic relationships in the motor vehicle with the help of numerous drawings and diagrams. The extensive main part deals with maintenance and repair work. The topics of "foreign cars" and "tugs" are dealt with in additional chapters. The informative appendix consists of workshop data and characteristics for motor vehicles that were current at the time.
This book is not only a treasure trove of knowledge for prospective journeymen, skilled workers, masters and technicians in the automotive trade, but also interesting for all technology-loving car fans.

Kraftfahrtechnisches Taschenbuch Reprint 1954 - Bosch Technik fürs Leben
Electrics in cars - that was a big shock for many workshops. This reprint from 1954 gives a great overview of the state of the art at the time. A contentious editor-in-chief once called the men in workshops and industry who had little knowledge of the subject matter, but who were well paid for it, "sloppy experts" and "scoundrels". In those economic miracle times, the Beetle was "in" and good mechanics were rare, and woe betide anyone who didn't know anything about their vehicle.
Robert Bosch GmbH knew about the needs of drivers. Long before the war, they had started publishing the "Kraftfahrtechnisches Taschenbuch". Here, the Swabian specialists informed professionals and interested owners about units of measurement and materials, explained the technical basics of cars, motorcycles and tractors, and then gave advice, tips and instructions for troubleshooting: wherever the shoe pinched and the copper worm was digging, Bosch had the answer.
