Won BID on original GM Chev C10/20/30 Workshop Manual
Hi Guys,
I came across this original workshop manual on a local site BidorBuy (like Ebay) and I bid for this manual and I won it....yipeeeee Here is the quote from the advert: "no date of print, softcover - book is about A4 size, VERY thick and heavy book, the softcover has marks and has been handled, spots and stains on a few pages, the text is clean and the binding good, shipping R60 in RSA- NO overseas shipping" here is some pics of the manual along with GM South Africa printed on the book. I am so happy with my find, whadda ya guys think? Z.

Thanks guys.
@LockDoc - agree I have not seen another 1 locally down here, there might be a few kicking around. The fact that its a localized version also makes it a little harder to find because it will be specific to trucks imported into SA.

Very good indeed ! .
I'm assuming it has al the RHD details.... Books are always good , most folks who buy them , never actually read them oddly enough .

Agree to your point, we only refer to them once we need something specific... But I don't mind just having it as part of the collection of Chev books for the truck.

Re: Won BID on original GM Chev C10/20/30 Workshop Manual
I have hundres if not thousdans of books , I've been collecting them since the 1960's and I try to read each one cover to cover , this way when I get on a new project or help someone out in the feild , I have a good idea of what's what .
A good mechanic , never stops learning as the more you learn , the more you realize just ho little you know .
