Something different / off-subject.

Sometimes, during discussions, forum members make mention of "other" projects such as Subaru, Lincolns, RX7s, etc.

Last weekend, while visiting a local antique store, I found three factory shop manuals for the following oddball cars: 1984 Chevette, 1985 Cavalier and 1986 Chevette.

If anyone knows of someone who could benefit from these, let me know via PM. Just trying to help!

NO!

There will be NO HELPING OF OTHERS with anything outside of a Ford truck!

Just kidding, thanks for the post! I talk out here about my Tempo or Taurus or whatever, pointers to books and such are always appreciated.

I'm in a playful mood for some reason, and FTE gives me something to do while being bored during lunch at work.

Those manuals are probably useless because those cars are no longer viable. Chevette = Chevy's worst idea.

Sorry to say I owned one 28 or so years ago. It had 38,000 miles on it and it was junk.

If someone still has one they probably have worn the pages off two or three shop manuals by now.
