The V8 Affair Ray Miller Pre-War Ford Flathead V-8 1932-1942 Book Softcover
type: Product
description: Everybody lists this one as 1972. This copy tells on itself. The V8 Affair is Ray Miller's year-by-year history of the pre-war Ford V-8 — volume 3 of the Ford Road series, photographs by Glenn Embree. The copyright is 1972, which is the date most sellers put in the listing because it's the date on the page. Open the front of this copy and the printing history reads FIRST PRINTING March 1972, THIRTEENTH PRINTING July 1997. That's what this is, and there's a photo of the page so you can read it yourself. Same text as the first printing. Not the same collector book, and you ought to know which one you're buying. What you're buying it for is what's inside. A chapter for every model year from 1932 through 1942, somewhere near a thousand black-and-white photographs, most of it pulled from original Ford material. It's put together for identification — hub caps, fuel pumps, generators, carburetors, radios, dashboards, and what changed from one year to the next. The back half is where it earns a spot on the bench instead of the shelf. Page 189 carries a simplified wiring diagram and a phantom electrical layout for 1938, alongside the note on the 24-stud head arriving and the water temperature probe moving ahead of the water outlet. Page 302 is a table of glass sizes by body style and model — windshield, vent, door, quarter, back — for '41 and '42. That's the kind of page you copy and hand to the glass shop.
