I downloaded a scan of a 1982 manual from simon@adelgigs.com. You have to make a donation to him for the unlock code. Then send the pdf off to mimeo.com or someone else for a quality printing job. Or spend $110 at http://www.retromotorworks.com/index...ROD&ProdID=497 for a reproduction. If you happen to score one on ebay, I'll be extremely jealous.

http://coochas.com/ He has brochures available on his site and it says owner's manuals available soon. I printed up a copy of the 1981 brochure to keep with my 1981. I have the 1981 owner's manual that my car came with.

If this is the spiral bound owners/drivers manual that goes in the glove box pouch, and your SC is an '83 - have I got a deal for you!!! My car, as you know, is an '82, but my book (in fair/good condition) is for an '83 car. So, you have an '83 car w/'82 book, I have an '82 car w/'83 book. Hmmmmm...

Pete, we can do that. I will ask my son to mail it to you from SoCal and you can send yours if the 1982 book is acceptable. Will call the kids at the end of this week and they should send next week. Your elec sheets will leave Dallas Thurs. Maybe we should look at a swap for your '82. I currently have 26 head of prime beef at about 20,400 pounds or so. However, there could be a shippinbg problem with UPS. BUT, you could retire your lawn mower and save a bunch on gas.
Actually, I've just bought a whale tail for my '82 (the tail is at the painter's as I write this), and I'm going to put on a chin spoiler (I'm still looking for a good one) - I've decided to keep the car based on; (1) I'd be stupid to sell it to buy an unknown, and (2) It's a great car, so instead of selling I decided to play with it instead.
I'll let you know about the book this afternoon!
