Pembroke Thom

Pembroke Thom (CAS’71) of Philadelphia, Pa., published Knowledge for the Mechanically Challenged: An Owners’ Guide to Car Repair (Pembroke Thom, 2024). “I’ve worked in all aspects of car repair,” he writes, “devoting over 50 years to doing everything from prepping new and used cars for sale to being a parts counter guy in several dealerships to working as a service writer and finally as a mechanic on both foreign and domestic vehicles....I believe [this book] to be of considerable value to the great majority of the driving public."

From the Fall 2024 issue.
