I found very little new in this book. He repeats himself several times regarding the revised taillight assembly (comments apply to all 1950 Plymouth, Dodge, DeSoto and Chrysler), wasting much space where he could simply say it once. Chrysler's many versions of their semi-automatic 2-speed transmission sorely need to be differentiated, but he does little to describe these differences. For example, Dodge's later version, the Gyro-Torque has a common oil supply with the engine. It is to be avoided if possible. There are also numerous errors in spec's that a knowledgeable proofreader would catch.
