Hi all,

Where do you all buy your classic car books from? I've used amazon, and more recently I found classicracingshop.co.uk but I wonder if anyone has any tips for other good places to buy online?

Also what about second hand books? I love browsing through piles of old car books and especially magazines! Jumble sales and car boots sometimes through up the odd thing but I wonder if anyone knows of any 2nd hand book shops in the yorkshire area with good stocks of car / transport books / magazines?

Cheers,
Phil.

Autojumbles in general.

Yes, I've seen a few stands with old magazines on at shows, have to say though I've never been to a full on autojumble, any good ones locally?

I remember a few years ago when I found an edition of popular motoring from the '60s in my dad's cellar - really fascinating to read that sort of thing now - it's amazing how things have changed!

Cheers,
Phil.

Loads of old books, handbooks, brochures for sale on ebay if you cant always get to auto jumbles, junk shops etc.

There is one that happens in Huddersfield, or Newark. Generally good.
