Haynes have come a long way since my oily 1972 copy for the Ford Escort alan Agree 100% This is no doubt a special edition of some sort. Its content is different than any Haynes manual I ever owned, and that's more than a few. I alo would often go to the public library where I would peruse copies of the Motor's Manuals for specific information on cars I was working on. At that time, I never had heard of Haynes. king derelict, Old Collingwood, DocRob and 2 others 5 Quote Completed Projects: USS Fletcher 1:144 Scharnhorst 1:350 USS Independence LCS-2 1:350 1:32 J7W1 Shinden Interceptor/Fighter Fairey Swordfish Mk.

DocRob Posted November 2 #33 Posted November 2 Nice find with the manual, at least with the third try, which worked. I had issues with ebay worldwide, when they somehow `lost´ some parts for my 1/1 Jeep, which were not available in Europe at the time. I ordered this one yesterday, but it´s not very thorough I guess, but will be sufficient for my GTO in 1/24. Reference / walkaround book: Ferrari 250 GTO (ref.

gsdpic Posted November 2 #34 Posted November 2 Good references....I also have a 1/24 250 GTO in the stash. Haynes has a series of those "owners workshop manuals" that are more documentation of historic vehicles rather than their traditional repair manuals. I bought one for the Ferrari 512 S/M race car when I built one of those. And they do not just cover cars....I bought one for the Sopwith Camel when I was working on the A/L Sopwith Camel. mtaylor, DocRob, Old Collingwood and 4 others 7 Quote - Gary Current Build: Artesania Latina Sopwith Camel Completed Builds: Blue Jacket America 1/48th Annapolis Wherry
