I’ve got one original to my car. Happy to scan it and send you the file.
Pat,
I appreciate the offer. Let me see if I can find one first. Heading to a show/swap meet in September.
I can't stop drooling over the picture of your Comet. What a BEAUTY!!!!

When I bought my 600 Holley from Summit (several years ago) they had free shipping, think they still do.
Was speaking as an occasional seller, not a buyer. My apologies, not always concise.

I got a set of factory maintenance and repair manuals from Motor Bookstore. Excellent reproductions.
Yes, very satisfied with my purchase from them 👍

My bad Joe, I know what you’re saying about shipping, I stopped selling on eBay because of their rates, and shipping costs. Yes you can get some decent buys if you search and are patient.
Those 1963 comet owners manuals are extremely high compared to others. I found a fellow on CL who sells manuals and he didn’t have a 63, but did have a 61 & 62. His prices are reasonable.

Lee,
Was that the guy in Ohio that had the Comet owners manuals?
If so, I reached out to him a few days ago. No 1963 manual.

No apology necessary. Things often get misconstrued writing out thoughts. Mine get fragmented @ times. :mrgreen: I have a boatload of things I would like to move but they all weigh as much as an elephant! Did find a book last week I've been looking for that has been out of print for many years. Picked it up for $10 :D

Law of supply and demand. Not much supply but may not be much demand, heh? Make a fair offer and see what happens.
