Default 1970s (mostly) books, magazines, & more (Panoramas, regional PCA magazines etc.)

I was lucky enough to end up at an estate sale of a guy who at one point did a lot of work on air-cooled Porsches & VWs. I basically grabbed everything I could carry. Here is some of the stuff I'm not hoarding for myself . The prices below include shipping in the US, but I'm also happy to ship internationally at buyer's expense. And if you want a bunch of things we can work out a discount.

Some of the old catalogs are only good as collection pieces I'm sure, but I can't be the only one that thinks this sort of thing is cool. PM me if you're interested in anything. For items marked as "sale pending," I'm trying to be fair to the people who contact me first, but if you'd like to be put in line for anything just let me know.

Alan Johnson Racing (AJ USA) catalog
As far as I can tell, this is from 1977, there's a receipt in it dated that year. Comes in an orange plastic binder, the pages look almost new.
Sold $20 shipped in the USA.


Automobile Quarterly, Volume 12 Number 3 (1974)
Includes articles about:
  • LeBaron: Throroughbred of Custom Coachbuilders
  • Rudolf Diesel - A Kind of Iceman
  • Diesel Cars, Problems, Progress & Promise
  • The Ford Nobody Noticed
  • Last Act: The V8 Years of Henry Ford
  • What Was it Like Out There
  • The Way We Were: The Life and Times of the Studebaker Hawk
  • The Merry Window Revealed, or An Expression of Tissen's Pane
The cover is a bit dirty, but otherwise fine, and the pages inside are in great shape.
$15 shipped in the USA








Bosch Technical Instruction: Electronically Controlled Fuel Injection, Manifold Pressure Sensitive (EFI-D) and Air Flow Sensitive (EFI-L)
1st edition, 1974. The cover is a bit rough and there is some staining on the pages, this is a book that has seen some use. There is some staining on pages, but everything is there and legible. This book is definitely better suited to your garage than your library.
$10 shipped in the USA








Solex: Selection and Tuning of the Carburetor
Great condition, this doesn't look like it was ever opened. It probably sat on the shelf for years.
Sold $15 shipped in the USA

Sportmotive Inc. Catalog
I'd guess this catalog is from the mid to late 70s. Not only Porsche parts, there's stuff for lots of popular imported cars from that period: BMW, Datsun, Fiat, MG, Porsche, etc.
Sold $15 shipped in the USA


Panorama Magazines
Some of these show a bit of shelf wear, and none of them are in perfect, like-new condition, but they are all in readable shape, without any big tears or missing pages or anything like that.
