Author Information

Many classic cars have passed through Mark Paxton’s workshop doors for repair and restoration over the years. He is a dedicated petrolhead with a love for both four wheels and two. A move away from the motor trade and into classic car and motorcycle journalism has allowed him to put onto paper some of the experience gained during that time in the form of magazine articles and several books, including several Essential Buyer's Guides and Restoration Manuals, in Veloce's best-selling series.
