It's called Ecklers's Complete Guide to Corvette Fiberglass Repair. It is written by Bob and Ralph Eckler.

I am not sure the Eckler book is still in print. See http://www.glas-ra.com to see the author of the fiberglass manuals still in the Eckler's catalog. I have both the Eckler's and the Glas-ra books and they are comparable. The author of the Glas-ra books is body man that has been repairing Corvettes for over 32 years. His name is Ray J. Schiro. Not knowing the Eckler catalog carried the same books that I had bought previously directly from Glas-ra, I ended up with two copies of the 1968-1982 books. If you are interested, I'll give you a good deal on my extra copies.

If they are available, buy one. If not, shoot me an email with your address and I'll loan you mine. No hurry on returning it.
