Hi Guys,

As per the title I'm on the lookout for an original EK workshop manual.

Please let me know if you have or know of any!

Thanks! :thumbsup:

Hmmm...I wonder if copyright still applies to the original GM manuals :think:

I have a couple of spares, but might be better off separating out the pages and scanning it :shh: :silent:

An pdf manual would be a very handy thing...

:arrow: :D

Just for your info have a look at this thread MeFB:
http://www.fbekholden.com/forum/viewtop ... 8&start=30

I actually lost mine not all that long ago, had a look on eBay to find a replacement - but they were going for what I thought to be a bit too much.
Thankfully a forum member helped me out and I got a manual in great condition at a very good price.

Hope the same happens to you mate.

Cheers

Stu

Don't normally do this, but.... BUMP

Still chasing one of these, preferably not for "eBay prices" though :shock:

I know there's a few on there now, but $145+ is a bit rich :roll:

I recon you should pm stuff like this, someone with a collection of them will snatch another one up just so it can collect dust, and the bloke that needs it will miss out :thumbsdown:

These cover several models, the genuine model specific workshop manuals are far more detailed in every aspect of the car.

Once you've seen one you'll see what I mean :wink:
