Chilton
Auto repair manuals
Chilton is a proper name—a surname of English origin and occasionally a given name.
It also refers to Chilton manuals, a long-running series of automotive repair guides covering specific vehicle makes and models: I picked up a Chilton for my '98 Civic.
The name has become somewhat synonymous with DIY car repair literature.
