I for one think this is a wonderful service Justin is performing.
There are a lot of people out there who can't find the books we need
to service and maintain our cars. Frequently the ones we do find
don't cover all aspects of the work that needs to be done.
I would rather have somebody make a buck or two off a book if it
helped me work on my LBC. I did purchase a book from Justin for my
spitfire and it had the best write up of servicing a voltage regulator
that I've seen yet. From the prices he seems to be charging I don't
think he's really covering his time and effort anyway.
