Some general information:
What is "the Old Car Manual
Project"?
The idea is to scan manuals for old, vintage or antique American vehicles
and their components and make them available on the web, for free.
Why are we doing this?
Why not? But really - one of the hardest parts of restoring or servicing old
machines is getting decent technical information. Often, it's difficult, impossible
or expensive to obtain. We think that this kind of information should be freely
available, as a public resource for the preservation of our industrial history.
Who are we?
We are some Guys Who Like Old Iron. We can be contacted here
