Ken and Andy,
I picked them up today and I'm sorry to say that it's a Spare Parts
Manual Part No. 506533 after all. It really is in great shape, with the
cardboard cover being discolored and slightly worn. There is also SPM's
for the Herald (# 508073) and the Vitesse (#511408) range in pretty
good shape. The Fast Moving Parts book is circa 1972, and was well used
in it's day. It's a mess, the binder is shot, pages tattered. It has a
whole bunch of tabbed sections that look like they never had any pages.
It does have a listing of Competition parts, #'s and prices. The
Triumph Master Price List is dated 5/25/70 and if in fair shape on the
binder and great shape on the pages. There is an MG Magnette Service
Parts List and a Hillman Minx, Husky and Cob Service Manual in very
good shape as well. The guy wants me to take the best offer on any or
all of these. He sold off the TR workshop manuals on his own a while
back.
