Subject: [Shop-talk] Old car manuals
Hey Gang,
I've had to clean out my old little bedroom/computer room/ham shack to
pull up the carpeting and put down new hard wood floor and baseboard
molding. In doing this I got ride of 2 desks, one was a very small operati=
ng
desk for the ham radio, and the other was a work bench for working on
electronic projects. That ment I needed a new operating desk. I built one
out of a solid core interior door, some metal "X" frame legs, and the put a
2" x 12" x 80" shelf on the desk supported by 6 - 12" pipe legs.
In this room I also had 2 5' tall book cases and 2 smaller ones. I'm
probably going to have to get rid of at least one of the tall ones and one =
of
the short ones.
So here's the tie to "shop talk". I have all kids of old car
manuals, for cars I
no longer own, like my 67 Spitfire shop manual, my '65 Volvo P1800, an old
Glenn's Foreigh Car Repair manual, then many more. So what should I do
with them? They would be relatively expensive to ship if I sold them on
eBay. I don't think my kids will want them. I am keeping the various
manuals and part catalogues I have the cover my Morgan and Bricklin as I
still own both cars.
I hate to just pitch them out. What would you do with them if they
were your shop manuals and catalogues?
Also, I'm no spring chicken and ain't getting any younger. :)
John
