Default Porsche literature from a non-Porsche site - is it interesting?

A member of a non-Porsche "car-club" has some 928 items. He either wants to sell them or establish a value. He posted the part #'s and descriptions:
A "catalogue picture book" 928 83-86 # WET 614100
A tech spec "pocket" 928S, 85, 86, 928S4, 1st edition 1989
The microfiche version of the 17 volume set
He also has silver gauge rings and an indiglow panel
For all I know this is just the usual owner's manual stuff, but I thought I'd relay the info in case it has some collector value.
It was in the Merkur Owner's Group.

A "catalogue picture book" 928 83-86 # WET 614100

This is most likely explosion diagram pictures from PET printed into A4 size paper. It does not contain part numbers. Has been NLA for some years now I think.

A tech spec "pocket" 928S, 85, 86, 928S4, 1st edition 1989

Has been NLA for some time.

The microfiche version of the 17 volume set

Probably 7 volume set which would make it late eighties perhaps.

For collector first one is most likely most difficult to find. Hard to say what they would bring on ebay. In all little over $100 with some luck perhaps.

That 17 volume set sounds interesting to me too. Which one exactly? And how much do you think he would want 4 it?

The fellow who has this stuff has posted to the Merkur site that he will be off line for some time.



Sorry I don't have a link, but e-mail is included in his post. A few listers have shown an interest in this so I thought I'd post his part # list.
