Kirkham has a partial-manual, and so long as the Kirkham bros. are alive and well that's probably good enough.

I'm sure Sandwich and the other guys have figured out how to put a Kirkham together by now, don't ya think?
Now granted I'm not the right person who should be saying this, but, these cars are relatively simple cars and many, many, many less than ASE certified mechanics have finished them in their garages.
Now if anyone needed a manual on how to really screw things up, then I should start writing that manual.
Chapter One - Do You Remember the Exxon Valdez? Well, I once spilled so much oil in my garage that FEMA, the EPA and the Department of Fish & Game had to be alerted.
Chapter Two - OCD Versus Nuts and Bolts - Have you ever been so obsessive compulsive that you tightened some nut or bolt so often to get just right, that it eventually became stripped? Just couldn't leave well enough alone, huh?
