Default Authentic 50 year old 356 manual on EBay

Hello 356ers,

I just posted something on EBay I thought you might be interested in: an authentic 1954 Porsche 356 workshop manual. It is awesome!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ADME:B:LC:MT:1

Take a look, let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

how much did your manual go for? I have a couple boxes of those from an old dealer that i helped move they have fabric swatch's in them....weird huh. Also, a box of microfiche for every model of porsche and a bunch of parts that dont go on my 944...

944-LT1 - What you have could be worth some money, especially if you have the complete set of fabric swatches...

I don''t think I'd call it a cr_p load of stuff. You may have some good $$$$ there
What else you got? I see lots of 911 stuff......
