Looking for a copy of Bob Gerometta's Oldsmobile Engine Modification and Tuning Guide - V8 Engines fm 1964 - 1978 I have found a couple of parts of the book in PDF on line but would like to have a full hard copy. Have checked eBay and Amazon. Anybody have one you would part with or know of a current source.
Thanks!

 

You can order Bob's publication directly from Bob by contacting Bob.

Thanks, I’ve emailed him but have yet to receive a reply

 

TTT
Still nothing from Bob

 

I hope you get a reply from Bob. It's an excellent book and worth having.

 

beginning to wonder if he's still with us got to be getting on in age. I'll post what I find if I hear back.

@jrzybob442 you still with us brother?

 

Another email address for him is bob.gerometta@ahpsoc.org.


You can download the entire book shown below in pdf format from the Automotive History Preservation Society website if you are a member of the AHPS, which costs $35 per year.

Thanks for that info.
Hopefully an original will show up on eBay or Amazon someday.

 

Unfortunately, the property address specified to order the book from Bob was sold by Bob in 2014.

2910 S Macalpin Drive, Palm Harbor, FL 34684

I'd suggest writing to the Spencers. Maybe they found a few old copies in the corner of the attic or something.

 

I did receive a nice email from Bob.

I have donated the book to the Automotive History Preservation Society - a 501 c3 not for profit - as a way for them to raise money to support their cause.

That's excellent that you got a copy. $35 isn't much more than I paid when I ordered it from Bob years ago.
