Any advice on a few books or DVDs to get for Cerb ownership?

I know alot of manuals and info are available online, but its nice to have a few reference books or workshop manuals to hand.

Is "TVR: ALL THE CARS, A Model-by-model History of TVR" (Hardcover) by Iain Ayre of any use for a general read? What about the DVD "Best Of British - TVR"?

None that are Cerbera specific to my knowledge, though PH'er VarleyHYD made a superb Sagaris Workshop Manual that is worth its weight in gold as quite a bit is transferable.

It is a great shame, and I am considering writing something myself, quite probably through PH'er Dean_ratpac/ "blurb" if it is still around. I have been part of the community for over a decade now, picked up a fair bit of information along the years and will shortly be doing a full body-off rebuild of our Cerbera. This should give me something worth writing about or atleast worth recording for the future?! thumbup

I thought someone started a book a few years back, was it Steve Heath?

Would love that book in my collection. I wonder if there are many completely standard cerbs out there, because they are the ones that you would have to photograph for your book.

I believe he was writing a manual akin to the others for the Chim/Griff, but it has yet to emerge.

There are a fair few standard cars out there, ours appears standard for example, but has various nice upgrades (and alot more on the way) - I think the more difficult task would be getting information/ pictures of the earlier racers. Perhaps I should look into this further, seems there are a few of you that would be interested in it? smile
