Just recently i was lucky enough to lay my hands on a collection of manuals and books on jeeps. One lot from the US and the other in England... Attached are a few pictures only since most of them are still awaiting for porters to bring them home to me....

Re: Classic Automobile Books / Workshop Manuals Thread

I am really surprised to see very little action on this thread.... Sure there are enough manuals in the team-bhp member repository to keep this thread updated a lot more often.....

Anyway, Got hold of a few more manuals so here they are......

1. 4 Wheel drive manual
2. The first version of the Cj3b manual. I understand there were 3 to 4 versions of this one..
3. First edition Cj3a manual (This one is a diamond in my collection)

Sorry to correct you after one whole month but an ESTEEM (carb) is not a classic car that you are posting quaries related to that in the Vintage and classic car section.

Re: Classic Automobile Books / Workshop Manuals Thread

@motor brullen : i have a soft copy of the owners manual and the workshop manual.Which one do you want? PM me

@indrojit: i had subscribed to the workshop manual thread earlier but when i clicked on the link , it said the page no longer existed. i realised that the thread was merged with this one.Maybe the mods didnt notice that they were putting it in the classic and vintage car section

Re: Classic Automobile Books / Workshop Manuals Thread

Can anyone tell me where i can get a workshop manual for a 91 Chevy Caprice Classic.I know it's not a vintage yet. Would prefer a soft copy. I know it's available on e-bay, but works out close to USD 100 inclusive of shipping, and there's no way I'm paying that much. If someone can possibly give me a link or something, that's available for free download, it would be great.

Thanks

Re: Classic Automobile Books / Workshop Manuals Thread

Here is one link where the owner has scanned and posted the 1959 Fiat 103 (Select) manual in high resolution. I thought of sharing it.

Fiat 1100 1959 Instruction Book, English

Hey ariesonu, unfortunately those manuals are owned by a friend in the US. You could search for these on ebay UK and they should be available. Behram Dhabhar does have a copy. Perhaps he could scan it for you?

Thanks Kiran, I did search & then posted the request. However I dont see any immeditae need for it as the resto will be under guidance of able BHpians like Karl, Amol, Ravi & other Fiat Gurus.

I'll still ask BD sir for a copy.

The Second one is this very very Color Treasury of Motor Racing. Makes a very interesting Read.

The Third one, i picked up yesterday. It has a Detailed history of hot-rodding and its developements.


Hi

The book on Rolls Royce seems interesting. Has it got the Chassis numbers and build records of Silver ghosts and Phantom1.


Cheers!
