How to restore: Reliant Regal (1962-1973) - Your step-by-step colour illustrated guide to body, trim & mechanical restoration (Enthusiast's Restoration Manual)
This book is the complete guide to buying and fully restoring a Reliant Regal 3/25 or 3/30. With advice on how to find a suitable Reliant Regal 3/25 or 3/30 for restoration, the book then proceeds with a fully illustrated step-by-step guide on how to dismantle a Reliant Regal, and fully restore the body, chassis, electrics and engine back to showroom condition.
Written by a Reliant owner, enthusiast and active member of the Reliant Owners Club, with real hands-on experience, this book covers everything you need to know about restoration from the ground up.
This quirky and iconic British vehicle is still as popular and collectible today as it ever was, probably more so due to its starring role in the BBC's hit TV comedy Only Fools and Horses. If you want to own and restore your very own Reliant Regal, then this book is for you!
