Repair manuals!

[Cranky]

I read a lot of posts here and seems that many who are working on their cars do not have them. Yeah, you can get a lot of info for them but IMO, the books still have a wealth of info in them and should be part of your arsenal of tools.

I have the FSM on cd and it has saved me almost as many times as fbbo members have saved me!!

yea, I can't believe how many people don't have one...especially when working on electrical

Even having the paper manual, I find I usually just look it up on my computer and print out the pages as I need them.

Here are a bunch of Chrysler/Plymouth/Dodge manuals for older vehicles:

I wonder why there is no 68 & 70 Charger service manuals....???

I would like to find downloads for the counter parts books for each year...I have the 66 & 67 years, would like some others

I downloaded these awhile ago, great site for making them available.

Do not know why a 68 Dodge manual would be hard finding. Have a 68 Chrysler Plymouth FSM + Others. Complete 1970's Patterson auto set and about a dozen worthless Chilton and Hays manuals. Plus access to master mechanics volumes at the public library. What would be real valuable work be the complete set off factory service bullitons from 68 -72.

Really? You mean on CD? I have two original paper manuals but they are combined with Coronet and Dart I believe. Red and white with a micrometer silhouette on the cover.

Besides the search tool on this site(more powerful then a 4 foot breaker bar) I got my manuals. Wish there was one on the 318 Poly...

I was referring to the downloadable links above that the 68 & 70 Charger manuals were not listed. Figured those would be the most popular. If I could find a 70 on CD, I would buy it...I like having the paper books as well just to sit and thumb through it at times

No doubt, and also when needing torque specs.

I still have my FSM from when I bought my 69 Charger back in 1979. The car is long gone but I still have the manual! The cover is torn off, the pages are greasy and dog-eared, and I couldn't imagine doing my Coronet resto without it.

Does anyone know where you can get these old manuals? I used to use Chiltons back in the day but that disappeared during moves. I'd just like a good repair manual that has details for my 68 GTX etc.

anyone know where to get one?

Very true statements Cranky! I have posted pictures of the manual pages to help people out many times. They are an invaluable resource in my shop.

Yes Crankys right. I used the search function to find this thread. Now I'd like to know how to get an actual manual. The book kind. Anybody know or want to sell one....?
