The pages are missing all of the title block information!

They should have the UPC location, as well as layout number and revision levels and such.

If a person is somewhat fluent in the engineering specifications language then they should be able to find their way around (although even then it is clunky).

I'm going from memory here, but


.....UPC 1 = body
.....UPC 2 = frame
.....UPC 3 = Front axle
.....UPC 4 = rear axle
.....UPC 5 = brakes
.....UPC 6 = engine
.....UPC 7 = trans
etc

Tire and wheel get a section, and front end sheet metal, and radiator support. Labels and literature gets a section.

Something like that. They go from zero to 14 or 15.


I say all that to say: no wonder! And - nice save, making your own index!

I was looking for something else and came across this:

This is what the factory index would look like -





I think you can see if a person knew the appropriate UPC you can home in pretty quickly on the area of interest.

Body, Engine and Electrical were tough regardless because there were so huge -
