I have really enjoyed the magazine scans in this section (specially MC12 scans :D ) so i feel i should try to contribute and share with you guys what i have. but i usually get car magazines like TG & CAR a long time after they are published.

So anyway i recently bought a book from the net, which explains the way car parts work. The book is geared more towards beginners and i have found it very usefull in teaching me the basics as well as more technical stuff. So here are a few scans from "HOW CARS WORK" by TOM NEWTON.

I have included the index, so if you need the scan for a specific car part let me know and i'll scan it in as soon as i can. :D

(Note: the pics are very large so i had to convert to gifs to get smaller file sizes) Enjoy...:D

Thks for the scans. Have you converted the images to grayscale? It saves some space.
