What else is out there?

I have found obscure books, service manuals, and brocures at antique shops. Gives me a reason to join the Admiral when she goes antiquing.

yep always fun to go antiquing with the lil lady, only problem is, by the time I am all the way through the store, unless I find cool stuff I like, she's just finishing up her first isle... Then she yells at me for rushing her lol....

Either Ebay or just a Google search. I even found an original shop manual for that Chrysler Royal straight eight.

used book stores.

Chrysler strait 8, that would be fun!!

here's an example of Boating January and February 1960 on google books, Lots and LOOOTS of literature on there!!

Yes...the straight eight was fun and it run beautifully when finished.

beautiful, i bet she sounds real nice!

Here she is:

I'm pretty sure I have a manual?,...Owner's Manual???,...Not sure,...For an early Chrysler Crown hemi & its related transmission. The gearbox is 'similar to' a vee-drive?
I used to have the complete engine & transmission assembly, but all that is long gone.
If anyone wants more info on the 'manuals' please send me a PM.
I will dig it out and snap a picture of the cover - maybe two 'books',...Can't remember.
You can have it for postage from 98584.

Love the add for the 14/15ft Anthony 3point boats! Any of them still around ?
Did they only sell on the west coast or did they make it to the east ?
Did any other companies ever copy them ? Would like to make one my next
winter project .
